Class rank is computed in the following manner:
Level Quality Points
AP 1.35
Honors 1.30
Level 1 1.20
Level 2 1.10
Level 3 1.00
Class Rank is weighted, and accounts for the course levels taken.
To determine the weighted score, multiply the final grade for each leveled course by the quality point for that level, then multiply that by the credits earned for the course. Sum that total for each completed course and divide by the total number of credits attempted.
Formula = (grade) (quality point) (credits) = QP Product for course. Add all course QPs and divide by the total potential credits.
Grade Point Average (GPA) is computed in the following manner:
GPA is unweighted, and does not account for the level of courses taken. NAHS does not report a weighted GPA.
To determine the Grade Point Average (GPA), multiply the final grade for each leveled course by the credits earned for the course. Sum that total for each completed course and divide by the total number of credits attempted.
Formula = (grade) (credits) = GPA for course. Add all course GPAs and divide by the total potential credits.
