Free GPA Calculator Online — Weighted Average by Credits
GPA (Grade Point Average) isn't a simple average of your grades — it's weighted by credits, so a heavy 4-credit course counts more than a 1-credit one. That's why two students with the same grades can have different GPAs. This tool applies the right weighting on your grading scale (4.0, 10-point, etc.) so you get an accurate GPA or CGPA, and can see how one course affects the whole.
