How to Convert Percentage to GPA?

Hey guys, I've been trying to figure out how to convert a 94% to a GPA on the 4.0 scale. Any tips on making the conversion or any resources that might help me out? Thanks!

To convert a 94% to a GPA on a 4.0 scale, you'll first need to understand how the percentage correlates to letter grades. Here's a general breakdown of the percentage-to-letter grade conversion, but keep in mind that the specifics may vary slightly between different schools:

- 90% to 100%: A

- 80% to 89%: B

- 70% to 79%: C

- 60% to 69%: D

- 0% to 59%: F

Now, you can use this breakdown to determine that your 94% would be equivalent to an "A." Here's a general conversion of letter grades to the 4.0 scale:

- 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

With this information, you can see that a 94% (which is an "A") would be equivalent to a 4.0 on the 4.0 scale. However, if the school uses a different grade scale (such as a +/- system or a 5.0 scale for weighted courses), the conversion may differ. It's essential to familiarize yourself with your school's specific grading policies to ensure accurate conversion. If you're unsure or need further guidance, consult your school's guidance counselor or registrar.

Good luck!
