Class Credits Calculator
Calculate your GPA based on the credit hours assigned to each course. Weighted GPA reflects the importance of each course.
Understanding the Concept
GPA is calculated by weighting each course's grade points by its credit hours:
Where: Weighted Grade Points = Grade Points × Credit Hours
Example Calculation
| Course | Grade | Grade Points | Credit Hours | Weighted Grade Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| English | A | 4.0 | 1.0 | 4.0 |
| Math | B | 3.0 | 1.5 | 4.5 |
| Science | A | 4.0 | 2.0 | 8.0 |
| History | C | 2.0 | 1.0 | 2.0 |
Total Weighted Grade Points = 4.0 + 4.5 + 8.0 + 2.0 = 18.5
Total Credit Hours = 1.0 + 1.5 + 2.0 + 1.0 = 5.5
GPA ≈ 18.5 ÷ 5.5 ≈ 3.36
