Hey everyone, I got a 65 in one of my classes, and I'm trying to understand how this translates to my GPA. Can anyone explain how to do this conversion? Thanks!
Converting a percentage grade, like your 65, into a GPA depends on the specific grading scale your school uses. However, I can provide you with a general conversion method. Most schools in the United States use a 4.0 GPA scale, where:
- A (90-100) = 4.0
- B (80-89) = 3.0
- C (70-79) = 2.0
- D (60-69) = 1.0
- F (0-59) = 0.0
Based on this scale, your grade of 65 would typically be considered a "D" and convert to a 1.0. Keep in mind that this conversion may not be accurate if your school uses a different GPA scale or weighting system. It's essential to consult your school's specific grading policy or ask your guidance counselor for a more definitive conversion.
