GPA Scale Conversion: 4.0 vs 5.0 vs 10.0
Different universities use different GPA systems. Always verify your school’s conversion policy.
Core formula stays same
GPA = Σ(Credit × Grade Point) ÷ Σ(Credits)
Only grade-point mapping changes between 4.0, 5.0, and 10.0 scales.
Weighted vs unweighted
On 5.0 scales, honors/AP courses may carry higher points. On 10.0, grades often map directly to percentage bands.
