A simple 4.0-scale GPA calculator gets weighted courses wrong — this one asks about Honors and AP/IB explicitly

A plain 4.0-scale GPA calculator treats an AP Calculus A the same as a regular English A — which is precisely the accuracy gap colleges point to when warning that generic GPA calculators don't capture course difficulty.

Weighted GPA calculator, Honors and AP/IB explicit

Mark any course as Honors (+0.5) or AP/IB (+1.0) and toggle "Weighted GPA" to see the difference — the common convention used here is stated plainly on the page, since schools vary in their exact bonus amounts and this tool doesn't pretend to match every one of them.

Cumulative GPA calculator, combine with a previous term
