Why GPA moves in steps

Grade points are attached to letters, not percentages, so the GPA jumps at each cutoff: 82.9% is a B- (2.7) but 83% is a B (3.0). If you are close to a cutoff, it can be worth asking how your teacher rounds. For a whole semester, the GPA calculator averages every course by credits. The reverse conversion is on GPA to percentage.

Questions students ask

What is 85% as a GPA?

An 85% is a B on the standard scale, which is 3.0 grade points.

What is 90% as a GPA?

90% is the bottom of the A- band, worth 3.7. 93% and above is an A, worth 4.0.

How do I convert my average percentage to a GPA?

Strictly, GPA is calculated course by course: convert each course grade to points, then average by credits. Converting one overall percentage gives a quick estimate. For an exact figure, use the GPA calculator.

Why is 89% only a 3.3?

GPA uses letter bands, not a continuous scale. 87–89% is a B+ (3.3) regardless of where you land in the band. Many teachers round 89.5 up to 90 (A-, 3.7), so rounding rules matter.
