  2. Use letters (A, B+) or percentages (91).
  3. Your GPA appears in the red circle; add or remove classes as you need.

The formula

A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0

Good to know

  • Middle school grades don't go on your college transcript, but they can decide placement in honors or advanced math in 9th grade.
  • Some middle schools grade on a 1–4 standards scale instead of letters; that isn't a GPA, so this calculator won't match it.

Questions

Does middle school GPA matter?

Colleges don't see it. It can matter for high school course placement, magnet or selective high school admission, and some scholarships for younger students.

What is a good GPA in middle school?

A 3.0 or higher (a B average) is good; 3.5 and up usually qualifies for honor roll.

Does an A+ count as 4.3?

On most U.S. high school and college scales an A+ is worth 4.0, the same as an A. A few colleges give 4.33 for an A+; this calculator uses 4.0, so if your school is one of them your real GPA will be slightly higher.
