Understanding GPA

- 3.0-3.9: Good (B range)
- 2.0-2.9: Average (C range)

How GPA Calculation Works
GPA is calculated by multiplying each course's grade by its credit hours, summing these values, and dividing by total credit hours.
Example GPA Calculation
Course 1: Grade 3.5 (A-), 3 credits → 3.5 × 3 = 10.5 quality points
Course 2: Grade 3.0 (B), 4 credits → 3.0 × 4 = 12.0 quality points
Total quality points: 22.5, Total credits: 7, GPA: 22.5 ÷ 7 = 3.21
