What Does GradeAtlas Calculate?
GradeAtlas calculates GPA and CGPA estimates by combining course credits, local grade values, and grading-system context. Therefore, the result is more useful than a flat percentage conversion when applications require an explanation of international grades.
- What is a GPA calculator?
- A GPA calculator converts course grades and credit hours into a weighted grade point average. GradeAtlas uses the selected country or university grading system before producing an estimate.
- What is CGPA conversion?
- CGPA conversion explains how a cumulative grade from one education system relates to another scale, such as the US 4.0 GPA scale. It is an academic planning estimate, not an official credential evaluation.
- What is a grading guide?
- A grading guide summarizes how grades, percentages, classifications, and pass thresholds work in a country or institution. GradeAtlas pairs these explanations with source-backed calculator logic.
