Pakistani Marks Into American GPA
What Is a GPA?
Each student completes his or her degree with a grade point average (GPA). A cumulative grade point average is the GPA for all courses taken throughout the degree program. Most universities use a GPA scale of 4.0, but a few universities use a scale of 5.0. To work out your GPA, take the numerical value assigned to the letter grade you achieve for each course (typically 4 points for an "A," 3 points for a "B," and so on), then multiply this number by the number

of credits each course is worth. Finally, add these numbers together and divide by the total number of credits for all courses. For example:

Letter Grade
Numerical Value
Number of Credits
Total
A
 4.0 3 19
B
 3.0 3 9
C
 2.0 3 6
 
 Total 9 27
27 divided by 9 = 3.0 GPA

Most universities will also offer some sort of honors degree. To qualify for an honors degree, you must fulfill additional credits or write an honors thesis; precise details depend upon the university and/or academic department. There may be different levels of honors: summa cum laude, magna cum laude, and cum laude, in descending order of distinction.

Note: Your GPA may be interpreted differently by each university in the US based on their review of your mark sheets/ transcripts. One university may focus on your GPA from the last four years of study, while another may focus on fewer years. GPA will be calculated based on the percentage marks you received in subjects that are deemed important by a particular university for entry into university level study.
