Hi everyone, I'm a bit confused about how letter grades translate into GPA. Can anyone tell me what's considered a B and a B+ in terms of GPA?
Sure, I can help clarify that for you.
In many U.S. schools, the GPA scale is as follows:
- A is 4.0
- A- is 3.7
- B+ is 3.3
- B is 3.0
- B- is 2.7
So, a B grade would reflect a GPA of 3.0, while a B+ grade would translate into a GPA of 3.3. However, remember that GPA scales can vary a bit among different institutions, so it's always best to check with your school's grading policies to get the most accurate conversion.
