FAQ

What scale is used?

A common US college scale: A = 93-100, A- = 90-92, B+ = 87-89, down to F below 60. Institutions vary slightly.

How do grade points work?

Each letter maps to points (A = 4.0, A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3…). GPA = points weighted by credit hours divided by total credits.

Which scale should I use for grad school?

Check your program’s official scale — some use 90+ for A, and GPA requirements often specify their own letter boundaries.
