Congratulations.  Where are you in your studies now?

Thanks. I'm about half-way through them. I still have a lot of education classes to take, and I've barely started my psychology minor.

dude, how did you figure that out?

dude, how did you figure that out?
4 for A's
3 for B's

=15

divide by four.

but since you got a B+ your GPA was probably even better.
maybe a 3.9

actually it is only 3.75 if you assume each course is weighted equally. that is, each course is worth the same number of credits.

A+ = 4.33
A = 4.00
A- = 3.67
B+ = 3.33
B = 3.00
B- = 2.67
C+ = 2.33
C = 2.00
C- = 1.67
D+ = 1.33
D = 1.00
D- = 0.67
E = 0.00

i don't know if D+ and D- exists for grading; i personally have never seen them. regardless, i included them in the expected values above.

let n >= 0
let gpa_n = the grade for a course, n
let c_n = the number of credits per course, n

average weighted gpa uses the formula:

gpa_average = sum_over_n(gpa_n * c_n) / sum_over_n(c_n)

Very good work, Quirky Carla.  :thumbup:    :star: :star: :star: :star:

Thanks for showing so nicely how to calculate GPA, RocketTurtle.  I did not know how pluses and minuses figured into it.  The universities I attended did not use pluses and minuses, just the letter grades.
