[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nuts. [/quote] This is an extremely conventional GPA formula. Maybe your school doesn’t believe in grades, but pretty much every American high school and college that gives grades uses these equations or something very similar to compute GPA. [/quote] I am one of the PPs and it’s still nuts. You get an A-, B and an A (in a half credit course) and get a 4.08 gpa from that? That is such blatant grade inflation. What is the point of grades? This is ridiculous.[/quote] It makes perfect sense to me if you’re taking AP or Honors. Those classes are designed to be more rigorous. So if you have 2 students, one taking conventional classes and the other taking AP and they end up with the same grades, of course the one taking AP will end up with the higher GPA. [/quote]
