How does a B- grade translate to GPA on a 4.0 scale?

Hi everyone, I received a B- in one of my classes this semester. I am trying to calculate my GPA and I'm not sure how a B- translates on a 4.0 scale. Can someone help me out with this conversion?

Hello! On the standard 4.0 GPA scale, a B- typically translates to a 2.67. A straightforward conversion might look like this:

- A+ = 4.3 (some schools don't use this)

- A = 4.0

- A- = 3.7

- B+ = 3.3

- B = 3.0

- B- = 2.67

- C+ = 2.3

- C = 2.0

- C- = 1.7

- D+ = 1.3

- D = 1.0

- F = 0.0

Keep in mind that different schools might have slight variations in their grading scales, so it's always best to consult your specific school's policies if you're unsure. But generally, a B- will be around a 2.67 on a 4.0 scale. Good luck with calculating your GPA!
