Statistical <strong>Report</strong>s<br />

How Career GPAs & Credits Are Calculated<br />

However, credits are awarded because of the passing grade of 96. Because it is a full<br />

year course, 50% of the possible credits of 1.00 are awarded giving the student .50<br />

credits for this grade.<br />

Course #7<br />

Because the student's midyear grade in this course is an I for incomplete, this course is<br />

skipped.<br />

Course #8<br />

This course does not count towards quality points and weight because the grade of P (for<br />

passing) has been assigned 0 quality points in the grade table.<br />

However, credits are awarded because P is a passing grade. Because it is a full year<br />

course, 50% of the possible credits of 1.00 are awarded giving the student .50 credits for<br />

this grade.<br />

Bottom Of The <strong>Report</strong><br />

For his midyear grades, the student earned 1.75 credits, 127 simple quality points,<br />

130.25 adjusted quality points and a weight of 1.50. These CURRENT values are added<br />

to the PREVIOUS career values to produce the NEW values. The NEW values are then<br />

stored on the disk as the student's career credits, quality points and weight - they are<br />

replacing the old PREVIOUS values. Note that due to this update the student's simple<br />

GPA changed from 88.96 to 88.54 and his adjusted GPA changed form 88.96 to 88.72.<br />

The GPA is calculated by dividing the appropriate quality points by the weight.<br />
