[quote=Anonymous]FCPS GPA calculation question -- this is for US VA History Honors, where the syllabus states the final grade is calculated by averaging all four quarters. 1st quarter: 82.6 round-up to 83 = B (3.5 weighted) 2nd quarter: 88.6 round-up to 89 = B+ (3.8 weighted) 3rd quarter: 76.0 = C (2.5 weighted) 4th quarter: ? If trying to get a B for the year, by averaging the numerical grades, he would have to get an 82.8 in 4th quarter to get a B for the year (or 3.0 u/w; 3.5 weighted). 82.6 + 88.6 + 76 + 82.8 = 330 330/4 = 82.5 round-up to 83 = B (3.5 weighted) However, if averaging quality points, getting a B in 4th quarter would result in lower than a B for the year. 3.0 + 3.3 + 2 + 3 = 11.3 11.4/4 = 2.825 round-up to 2.83 = B- (3.325/B+ weighted) Which approach will teachers usually use?[/quote]
