Common grading scales
This converter rescales a value linearly between point-based maxima — useful for the scales below, where a higher number means a better grade.
- 4.0 — US / Canada
- 5.0 — US weighted / Singapore CAP
- 7.0 — Australia
- 10.0 — India
Scales this converter does not handle
Some systems aren't a simple max-to-max ratio and a linear converter would give wrong answers for them:
- Germany (1.0–5.0, inverted) — here 1.0 is the best grade and ~4.0 is the minimum pass, so the scale runs the opposite direction. It needs an inverted, piecewise mapping rather than a linear ratio.
- Letter and classification systems (US A–F, UK First/2:1/2:2) — use the GPA calculator's scale selector, which maps each grade to points directly.
- Country credential conversions (India, China, France → US GPA) — use the CGPA to US GPA (WES method) tool, which is credit-weighted rather than a flat rescale.
