How the Percentage is Calculated

The percentage is calculated by converting each grade to its corresponding grade points and then averaging these points. Here's how it works:

Formula Used

Percentage = (Total Grade Points / (Number of Courses × Maximum Grade Points)) × 100

Where Maximum Grade Points is 10 (for the highest grade, A+).

For example, if you received an A+ in one course and a B+ in another, the calculation would be:

  • A+ = 10 grade points
  • B+ = 8 grade points
  • Total Grade Points = 10 + 8 = 18
  • Number of Courses = 2
  • Percentage = (18 / (2 × 10)) × 100 = 90%

Grade Conversion Table

The following table shows how each grade corresponds to grade points:

Grade Grade Points
A+ 10
A 9
B+ 8
B 7
C+ 6
C 5
D+ 4
D 3
E 2
F 0

Worked Example

Let's say you've taken 3 courses with the following grades:

  • Course 1: A (9 grade points)
  • Course 2: B+ (8 grade points)
  • Course 3: C+ (6 grade points)

Using the formula:

Calculation

Total Grade Points = 9 + 8 + 6 = 23

Number of Courses = 3

Percentage = (23 / (3 × 10)) × 100 = 76.67%

So, your overall percentage would be 76.67%.
