Which one do I need?
Start from what you're holding. Letter grades for this semester? TheGPA calculator turns them into a term GPA — the college and high-school versions add repeats/pass-fail and honors/AP weighting on top of the same saved course list. Several semesters of GPAs? Thecumulative GPA calculator credit-weights them into your overall figure and tracks terms across visits. A number you need to hit?The GPA raise calculator inverts the math and tells you what next semester must deliver — and whether one semester is enough.A form asking for a different scale? The converters translateGPA to percentage andpercentage to GPA, including the Indian 10-point CGPA rules. And if your school ranks students, theclass rank calculator turns rank into percentile.
One scale, shared by every tool
Every calculator here uses the same letter scale — A caps at 4.0 with +/− steps of 0.3, F at zero — so numbers move between tools without translation errors. Save a semester in the GPA calculator and the cumulative page reads it; lock a course letter after finals and it lands in your term. Weighted tools layer +0.5 (Honors) and +1.0 (AP/IB) on the same base scale. Your data stays in your browser: no accounts, no uploads, one click in the footer wipes it.
Frequently asked questions
Which GPA calculator do I need?
For one semester's letter grades and credits, use the GPA Calculator. To combine several semesters into an overall figure, use the Cumulative GPA Calculator. If you have a target and want to know what next term must look like, use the GPA Raise Calculator. High schoolers with honors/AP weighting want the High School version; college students with repeats and pass/fail want the College version.
Is a 3.5 GPA good?
A 3.5 is an A−/B+ average — above the typical Dean's List line at many colleges, competitive for most graduate programs, and the most common scholarship screen. Context matters: a 3.5 unweighted with a heavy AP schedule reads stronger than a 3.5 weighted.
How do weighted GPAs work?
Honors and AP/IB courses add bonus points to each grade — commonly +0.5 and +1.0 — so the scale runs to 5.0 instead of 4.0. An A in AP Chemistry counts 5.0 weighted but 4.0 unweighted. Colleges usually recalculate on their own scale, so know both numbers.
What GPA do I need to graduate with honors?
Typical cutoffs are 3.5 for cum laude, 3.7 for magna cum laude and 3.9 for summa cum laude, computed on your cumulative GPA — but every institution sets its own thresholds and some use class rank percentiles instead. Check your school's catalog for the binding numbers.
