How do I calculate my GPA?

Your grade point average, or GPA, can be unofficially calculated on the basis of grades and number of units. The University of California Berkeley's grade point scale is: A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0. A plus (+) or minus (-) may also be recorded. Grades with a plus sign (such as B+) carry 0.3 point more per unit; minus grades (such as A-) carry 0.3 point less. (An A+ counts as 4.0.) The chart below outlines the standard scale used by most colleges in the United States: 

Letter Grade	Percent Grade	4.0 Scale
A+	97–100	4.0
A	93–96	4.0
A-	90–92	3.7
B+	87–89	3.3
B	83–86	3.0
B-	80–82	2.7
C+	77–79	2.3
C	73–76	2.0
C-	70–72	1.7
D+	67–69	1.3
D	65–66	1.0
F	Below 65	0.0
