On a 4.0 scale, a GPA of 3.0 (B average) is generally considered good. A GPA of 3.5 or above is very good, and 3.7 or higher is often considered excellent. Requirements vary by school and program.

Multiply each course grade point (A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0) by its credit hours. Add all the results together, then divide by the total number of credit hours.
