also the more subjects you take the longer you stay in school. if you're like me and take 6 subjects (plus whichever semester of my extra-classes i'm on): school would usually go for 7-8 hours

I don't think you can calculate GPA using your system. At my university, this is the way GPA is assigned:B'ni Dhana wrote:
would my gpa be at least like 3.8? -ish
4.0: 90% or higher
3.9: 85-89.9%
3.7: 80-84.9

My school gives us the percentage we got in each class, so we can easily calculate our GPA my averaging out the corresponding GPA for each class. You're assigned a letter grade though, which is a range. So like your E might be 90-100, which would be a 4.0. But your M might be 80-90, which could either be a 3.9 or 3.7, but you wouldn't know which one. So yeah, I have no clue how you would actually calculate GPA. Maybe an American might know, they're more used to the GPA system than me

we get a scroll for passing each level with a black/red/white ribbon with our name and stuff on it lolBest Friend wrote:
Similar thing here. Each high school class is like an hour long give or take, don't remember exactly, so if you take extra classes, those take place outside of usual school time (usual school time being from 9am-3pm). For example, one of my extra courses was from 7-9pm two days a week.B'ni Dhana wrote:

It is a good system, it makes more sense to see exactly how well you did in a course, and not just get a letter than doesn't hold much meaning.oh i want your system lol
That's so unfair and way easier.Best Friend wrote:

hmmmm I don't think this is a thing lol, at least not in the USBest Friend wrote:
You guys are missing the fact that GPA is standardized so it factors in the difficulty of the particular university. My university has a different GPA conversion than another university, because mine may be easier or harder. So yes, your raw average may be higher than mine Emily, but if you came to my university, your raw average would probably be lower. I'm not to say that my university is better than yours, or yours is better than mine, but GPA factors in the ease of getting grades so everyone's grades are standardized and can be compared.
i know "get your act togther" "grow the f up" "start this start that" "be more responsible" "blah blah fucken blah"Pink_ wrote:
