Common Grade Questions
What is a "Good" GPA?
While subjective, a **3.0 GPA (B average)** is often the minimum requirement for many corporate internships and graduate school admissions. A **3.5 or higher** is generally considered highly competitive and often qualifies you for honors like Dean's List.
Weighted vs. Unweighted
Unweighted GPAs max out at **4.0**. Weighted GPAs include "add-ons" for AP or Honors classes, often allowing students to reach a **5.0** or higher. This converter uses the standard unweighted point system.
Finals Week Tip
"A lot of students focus on the percentage, but grad schools look at the points. If you're sitting at an 89% (B+), that extra 1% to hit 90% (A-) isn't just 1 point—it's a **0.4 jump** in your semester GPA. Focus your study time where the letter-grade jumps are closest."
