A GPA is an acroymn for “Grade Point Average”

In American schools students academic proficiencies are measured on a point scale between 0.0 and 4.0 with 4.0 at the top of the scale.

* A = Excellent or Superior; or top 10% (90 to 100) = 4.0

* B = Above Average; or second 10% (80-89) = 3.0

* C = Average; or third 10% (70-79) = 2.0

* D = Below average, minimum passing grade (60-69); or fourth 10% = 1.00

* F (Also N or E or U): Failure or Exceptionally Poor; or bottom 60% (0-59) = 0.00

So a GPA of 3.5 would mean you are between “Above Average and Superior” or representing the top end of students in your class.

Generally speaking the difficulty of course you’ve taken will factor into acceptance into any given university. Given an overall percentage of 86 I’d guess you have a decent chance on getting into your school based on your academic merits.

Hope that helps….good luck.

It’s essentially half A’s and half B’s — if you’re taking 16 credits and have a goal of 3.5, you’ll need at least 8 credits of A’s and 8 of B’s to maintain. In terms of percentage (if I understand your question correctly) that will put you at (approximately!) the top 15%.

Each school, college, etc is different. A 3.5 at my college (William and Mary) is more like the top 50%.

I WISH I had a 3.5, lol!

That’s a pretty good grade point average..consisting of mostly A’s and B’s..you are also listed under the caume laude which in Latin means with honor.These honors are awarded to those undergraduate and graduate students who have achieved academic distinction. The honor is typically indicated on the diploma. Awesome if you got that!! Congrats:)

If you had an average of 86% then your GPA is: 4 * 0.86 = 3.44. So your GPA is 3.4, if they want a 3.5, then you didn’t get it. This is a simple mathematic problem, you should know this. But I don’t know how your honors will factor into this.

A high B, or about 89-90%.

Well, if they’re accepting people with an 84% chances are you didn’t make it due to that, however, some colleges also look at community service, and extra curricular activities. Therefore, if they like you, they may not go on your G.P.A. alone. Good luck kiddo!

It deals with fuel economy and America has no place talking about that.

Actually, it’s not bad.

A 2.0 is a C

A 3.0 is a B

So it’s like a B+ A- average.

what do you mean by %…do you mean like where you fall in your class?? because that is dependent on your class. I feel as though a 3.5 is a decent GPA for highschool and even better for college.
