Grade Point Average
Grade Point Average
GPA: GPA is calculated as follows: A=4.0 B=3.0 C=2.0 D=1.0 (Pluses or minuses do not add or subtract points)
4.0 Scale GPA: Most colleges and schools report GPA on a 4.0 scale. The unweighted GPA scale is the most frequently used GPA scale. Basically, the highest GPA you can earn is a 4.0, which indicates an A average in all of your classes.
5.0 Scale GPA: The weighted 5.0 GPA scale takes into consideration the difficulty of your classes, while the unweighted 4.0 GPA doesn’t. The 5.0 GPA allows a higher GPA. The letter grade of an A in an AP (Advanced Placement) course is worth 5 points.
Cumulative GPA: The grade point average earned for all high school courses attempted (including Geometry H and world language in the 8th grade, if taken) computed by dividing the total number of points received from grades by the total number of courses taken.
Weighted GPA: Based on Scholastic GPA, all Honors and AP courses use a GPA calculation of 5.0 for a grade of A, 4.0 for a grade of B, and 3.0 for a grade of C. Grades of D and F do not earn extra weight. The Weighted GPA is used for rank by decile only.
Cal Grant GPA: A minimum 3.00 high school GPA, or a minimum 2.40 college GPA is required for Cal Grant A; a minimum 2.00 GPA is required for Cal Grant B. A state grant, this award doesn’t have to be repaid the way loans do. The funds are available to students pursuing undergraduate degrees or vocational or career training at California colleges and universities.

Keep in mind that taking approved high school (A-G) courses isn't the only way to satisfy these requirements. You also may meet them by completing college courses or earning certain scores on various acceptable exams.
These requirements should not be confused with the courses required by Adolfo Camarillo High School for graduation.
