<h3>Calculating Grade Point Average (GPA)</h3> <h3>Calculating Grade Point Average (GPA)</h3>
<p>Grade point average is a calculated average based on grades and credit earned per class. The grade points earned by the letter grade in each class are multiplied by the credit value of the same class. The point values from each class are then added together and divided by the total number of credits. The resulting number (a value between 0.0-4.0) is the students GPA. Since AP<sup>®</sup> classes are college-level courses, they use the weighted GPA scale (1.0-5.0). Pass or fail classes are not calculated in GPA. You can use a<a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CmFq8vEnM-63bJDdPDyZkzZgAFjtXYlJ2SI4ABLR8ss/copy"> GPA calculator here</a> to make estimates of your GPA for the current grading period. CRICS does not calculate class ranking.</p> <p>Grade point average is a calculated average based on grades and credit earned per class.

<p>Weighted GPA<br>Advance Placement (AP) courses can earn up to 5.0 grade points if the student completes the course and takes the AP test. &nbsp;A GPA affected by AP scoring is referred to as a weighted GPA. If a student's GPA is calculated without the influence of AP grade points, it is referred to as an unweighted GPA.</p>
