How to look at the grading standards of American universities?
In China, the grading system is 100%, that is, the total score is 100, and you also get 80 points and 90 points for each course. Therefore, there are usually two ways to calculate the total score in China:

1, arithmetic average: add up the scores of all subjects and divide by the number of subjects.

2. Weighted average score: the score of each course is multiplied by the corresponding credits of the subject, then added and divided by the average of the total credits.

American universities directly grade A, B, C, D and F, instead of 890 points for a course in our country.

A: Full marks are excellent! Very good.

B: above average, that is, above average is good.

C: The average level is the average.

D: I just passed. I just crossed the line. Usually the lowest passing score.

F: fail. Fail.

GPA algorithm:

From the above data, we can generally see that the GPA obtained by each algorithm will be slightly higher than that of the ordinary standard algorithm.

Three commonly used algorithms are compared: Zhejiang University algorithm, Peking University algorithm and WES algorithm.

First recommendation: Zhejiang University algorithm

Zhejiang University algorithm has great advantages in most scores, but only in the score of 60-65, the calculation results will be worse than other algorithms.

The second recommendation: WES algorithm

WES algorithm will have absolute advantages in the score segments of 85- 100, 75-76 and 60-67.

Third recommendation: Peking University algorithm

The scores of Peking University algorithm in 77-84 and 68-74 are higher than other algorithms.

Conclusion: The advantages of each algorithm are alternating. Personally, it depends on which score segment your report card is distributed to and which method is used to calculate it.
