GPA Converter
An unweighted GPA means that your GPA is measured on a scale from 0 to 4.0 regardless of how difficult your classes are. This means an A in an AP or IB course and an A in a low-level course both translate to 4.0s. You can use this GPA converter to figure out your unweighted GPA below.

How Do We Calculate an Unweighted GPA?
In order to better understand your GPA, it helps to know the process behind calculating a GPA. Each letter grade is worth a certain amount of points, as you can see above. To calculate your unweighted GPA, follow these steps:
- Multiply the numeric value of your grade by the number that the course was worth
- Do this for all of your classes and add the numbers together
- Divide that number by how many classes you took
- The number you have at the end is your GPA
