GPA? (U.S. thing, I think)

[-Soph-]

Righttt, i've not been in my U.S. school for long - they never did GPAs in my old school or anything, so i'm kinda confused on what a good GPA is (grade point average)

i'm getting a 3.7 GPA at the moment, is that good or bad?

what's the highest GPA you can get?

Srsly, if I knew what you were talking about I'd help out. I dont think they have it in the UK anyway, well.. I've never heard of it tbh.

Perhaps Google it or something?
I would do it for you, but Im too lazy right now. Lol!

The highest is 4 cos that's what Elle Woods got in Legally Blonde.

oh.. nice, thanks

does anyone know if there's a way to make it go over 4?
like, taking AP classes, etc.

hows it work coz ppl say they get 4s for attainment which is as in everything?

if so school are way to generous

no it's not for attainment, they average the percentages of your grades

this is how you work it out
