Calculating your grade point average is pretty easy with some basic math. Each letter grade has an associated value, from zero to four. If you add all of these values and divide by the number of classes, that will equal your GPA. Below I have provided a list of associated values for each letter grade, and some easy ways to calculate your grade point average if certain classes count more (for example, in college, the more credit hours a class is worth, the more it will impact your GPA). In High School or Junior High, each class will likely count for the same amount. Using the chart below, figure out what grades you think you’ll receive or have received. Take the value listed and add all of them together. So, if you have four classes, one A, B+, B and an A-, you would add 4+3.33+3+3.67 = 14. Taking this total divided by the total number of classes will give you your GPA. So, in this case, 14 / 4 = 3.5 GPA.
- A 4.00
- A- 3.67
- B+ 3.33
- B 3.00
- B- 2.67
- C+ 2.33
- C 2.00
- C- 1.67
- D 1.00
- F 0.00
In College, each classes usually has a credit hour amount. An easy way to account for the added weight of a class with more credit hours is to do the following:
- Take the number of credit hours of a class multiplied by the associated grade point listed above. So, for a 4 credit hour class with a B+ grade, you would do 4 * 3.33 = 13.32. Do this for each class you have, and add them all together to get a final number. Take this number and divide it by the number of credit hours you are taking and whamo! you’ve got your GPA.

Sometimes you just have second thoughts about that ugly sticker on your back window or bumper… or maybe it’s just worn out and looks trashy. Removing old stickers from your car can often be a real pain, but with some easy tips listed below, you’ll have it done in a flash.
- First, attempt to remove the sticker with just your fingers. Chances are you’re here because you’ve already tried that, though
.
- Slowly begin to peel the sticker off while heating it with a hair dryer. If the sticker is on paint, be careful to not overheat the paint surface.
- You may have that annoying sticker residue on your window after removing the sticker. An easy way to remove this is a mixture of 50% rubbing alcohol and 50% water. Spray this on the sticker and allow it to settle for a few minutes.
- Rub any remaining residue off and clean the area with some soapy water.
