1, GPA calculation method
The full name of GPA English (forum) is grade point average, which means average grade.
The GPA recognized by most schools in the United States and the world is 4, that is, A=4, B=3, C=2, D= 1.
Most universities such as the United States and Australia have minimum requirements for applicants' GPA, and those that fail to meet the minimum requirements will not be considered. Many companies also use GPA as a way to check students' grades when recruiting graduates.
The standard calculation method of GPA: the weighted average of college grades multiplied by 4 and then divided by 100. A common method is to multiply the scores of all subjects by the sum of studies and then divide by the total credits.
The common calculation method of GPA: the credits of each course are multiplied by the hours, and the total hours are divided to get the average score.
Generally speaking, a score of 90 or more in China schools can be regarded as 4, a score of 80 or more as 3, a score of 70 or more as 2, and a score of 60 or more as 1 minute.
On a five-point scale, 5 is divided into 4 points, 4 points into 3 points, 3 points into 2 points, and 2 points into 1 minute. There are no class hours on the transcripts of many universities in China, so GPA can only be estimated, and the scores of all courses can be divided by the number of courses.
To the disadvantage of students in China, most schools in China are quite strict in grading, and there is no uniform standard.
Many students with excellent actual grades are not 3.0 after converting their grades into GPA. In some universities, the total average score of the top five students in the class may be below 82, so when applying for universities in the United States and Australia, the GPA will be below 3.0, and you can only enter some third-and fourth-rate schools.
High school students applying for undergraduate or preparatory courses in Australia can't find out because their high school grades are not in the files of the Ministry of Education, so they can only rely on the school transcripts, and they can go to the Academic Affairs Office to revise their grades.
Of course, we don't recommend revising the report card, because such behavior belongs to academic fraud and is a very serious fraud, unless your average score in high school is too low and you really want to study in Australia.
In addition, if your average score is enough to apply for an Australian undergraduate or preparatory course, it is not recommended to modify your transcript to achieve a higher score.
2. Weighted average score
The weighted average is the average of data with different specific gravity, and the original data is calculated in a reasonable proportion. Specific to the weighted average score, the original data is our grades, and the reasonable proportion is credits. The function of weighted average score is to help schools understand students' professional performance, because professional courses usually have higher credits.
Calculation method:
Convert the scores of all courses into a percentage system. If the scores of some courses are expressed as excellent, good, medium, passing and failing, please take the lowest value for conversion according to the regulations of the school. If excellent =90- 100, take 90.
Calculation formula of weighted average score:? (course level x credits)/? loan
