GPA Scale Conversion Formulas

4.0 → 4.33: A+ = 4.3, all others the same (A = 4.0, A- = 3.7, etc.)
4.0 → 5.0: Add 1.0 point for AP/IB courses; regular courses stay at 4.0 max
4.0 → 10.0: Multiply by 2.5 (e.g., 3.5 GPA × 2.5 = 8.75 CGPA)
4.0 → %: Use letter grade percentage ranges (A = 93–100%, B = 83–86%, etc.)

Proportional conversion: New Scale GPA = (Old GPA ÷ Old Max) × New Max

4.33 scale: 3.5 (unchanged for A-)

10.0 scale: 3.5 × 2.5 = 8.75 CGPA

Percentage: approximately 90–92% (A- range)

Frequently Asked Questions

The proportional method provides a widely accepted approximation. Individual schools may use custom conversion tables. For official credential evaluation, use a recognized service like WES or ECE. This calculator is best for quick estimates and planning.
The 4.33 scale awards A+ = 4.3 instead of capping at 4.0. Used by some US colleges and many Canadian institutions. Only students with A+ grades are affected — it provides more differentiation at the top of the academic range.
US high school 5.0 weighted scales add 1 point for AP/IB classes. College admissions offices recalculate to unweighted 4.0. Use your unweighted GPA for college applications — the weighted 5.0 GPA value itself should not be directly converted to a 4.0.
Use: US GPA = (CGPA ÷ 10) × 4. For example, CGPA 8.5 = 3.4 US GPA. Many graduate programs accept CGPA directly. For scholarship applications requiring a 4.0 number, a WES evaluation provides an official certified conversion.
GPA and percentage are related but not interchangeable without your school's specific grading scale boundaries. GPA is a credit-weighted average of grade points, while percentage is a raw score average. The proportional conversion is a standardized estimate.
