What Is a GPA Calculator?
GPA — Grade Point Average — sits on multiple incompatible scales. US 4.0 scale: A=4.0, A-=3.7, B+=3.3, B=3.0 ... D=1.0, F=0.0 — used by most US universities (UC system, Ivy League, state schools). Weighted 5.0 scale: same letter grades but AP / IB / Honors classes add +1.0, so an A in AP Calc is 5.0, raising your GPA above the 4.0 unweighted cap; common in US high schools to recognize harder coursework. 100-point scale: used in China (清华 cutoff ~93), Russia (5-point but with .5 increments), and many European systems. ECTS (European): A=excellent, B=very good, C=good, D=satisfactory, E=sufficient, F=fail (text-based, no numeric average until institutions convert). UK Honours: First (70%+), Upper Second / 2:1 (60-69%), Lower Second / 2:2 (50-59%), Third (40-49%), Fail (<40%). The calculator accepts inputs in any scale and outputs converted GPAs for cross-system comparison — useful when applying from a 100-point Chinese transcript to a US 4.0 university or vice versa. Credit-hour weighting is applied: a 4-credit AP class with grade A contributes 4 x 5.0 = 20 quality points to the numerator, not just 5.0.
How to Use the GPA Calculator
Add courses one at a time. Each row needs: course name (optional), credit hours (or units), letter grade or numeric score, and class type (Regular / Honors / AP / IB / Dual Enrollment). The calculator computes unweighted GPA (every class capped at 4.0 regardless of difficulty) and weighted GPA (AP/IB/Honors getting +1.0 / +0.5 / +0.5 respectively — the typical US-high-school convention; check your school's policy as some weight AP at +1.0 and IB HL at +1.0 but IB SL at +0.5). The output table shows per-course contribution (quality points = credits x grade points), running cumulative GPA, and the per-course delta. Switch the scale picker between US 4.0, US 5.0 weighted, 100-point, 5-point Russian/Indian, ECTS-letter, and UK Honours. A WES-style conversion table is built in so you can convert a 3.7 US GPA to its rough equivalent on the 100-point Chinese scale (~89), the UK 2:1 band (60-69%), or the ECTS A-B range — useful for international graduate-school applications.
Why Tracking Your GPA Early Pays Off
GPA is one of the most over-weighted and under-understood numbers in college admissions. UC Berkeley publishes its admitted-student GPA range — the middle 50% sits at 4.18-4.40 weighted which corresponds to ~3.85-4.0 unweighted; quoting your weighted GPA against an unweighted benchmark or vice versa gets your math rejected. The 90th-percentile US public-school weighted GPA hit 4.5+ during pandemic-era grade inflation (College Board 2024 study); top schools have started looking at rigor metrics (number of AP / IB taken vs available) rather than GPA alone. For international applicants, WES and ECE evaluator services convert non-US transcripts into a US 4.0 number — graduate programs in the US explicitly require this conversion, and grad-school GPA cutoffs (3.0 for many master's programs, 3.5 for top PhD) refer to the converted 4.0 number. Computing your GPA correctly before applying lets you target schools where your number is competitive, rather than discovering during admissions that the rigor adjustment changed your standing by a full letter grade.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which grading systems does this support?
TeaFun supports multiple grading scales, including 4.0, 4.3, Honours, and HD-D-C-P. You can switch systems anytime.
How is the required final exam score calculated?
TeaFun adds the weighted contribution of every completed assessment, then solves the remaining final-exam percentage needed to reach your target total.
Are my grades stored anywhere?
No. All scores, grades, and verdict-card generation stay on your device. Nothing is sent to TeaFun servers or stored externally.
