How to calculate your GPA
GPA is based on grade points and credits. A higher-credit course has more impact than a lower-credit course, so improving a grade in a 4-credit class usually moves your semester GPA more than improving a 1-credit class. For final exam planning, try the Final Grade Calculator.
Cumulative GPA and target GPA planning
A semester GPA only measures the courses you enter for this term. A cumulative GPA combines your previous academic record with the new quality points from this semester. Enter your current GPA and completed credits in the calculator to estimate how this semester changes your overall GPA. Then add a target GPA and future credits to see the average you need next.
GPA calculator examples
GPA depends on both grades and credits. These examples show why a higher-credit class has more impact than a lower-credit class.

A in 3 credits, A- in 4 credits, B+ in 3 credits
Semester GPA: 3.68
Balanced semester
B in 3 credits, A in 3 credits, C+ in 4 credits
Semester GPA: 3.02
Credit impact

How to improve your GPA
Start with the classes worth the most credits, then list the exams and assignments that still carry major weight. Muneo AI can help turn PDFs, notes, and YouTube lectures into study sessions with notes, quizzes, and flashcards, so your study time is tied to the material you actually need to master. For exam planning, use the Final Grade Calculator. If your class grade has weighted categories, try the Weighted Grade Calculator. If you need a study schedule, use the Revision Timetable.
