5.0 Scale GPA — Frequently Asked Questions

How do you calculate weighted GPA on the 5.0 scale?

We start with the standard 4.0 letter map (A=4.0). Weighted points add the course weight (e.g., +1.0 for AP). If “Cap at 5.0” is chosen, weighted points are limited to 5.0.

Can I enter percentages instead of letters?

Yes. Enter a percent and the tool converts it to a letter using your thresholds (A+ ≥ A ≥ A- … ≥ D- kept consistent).

What does the CSV import expect?

A header like: course,percent,letter,weight,credits. You may leave percent or letter empty; the other will be used.
