Chinese GPA is calculated on a scale of 0-100, with 60 being the passing score. The calculation takes into account the weighted average of grades earned in each class, with major courses carrying more weight than elective courses.
According to a Forbes article, “Chinese grading scales are generally more rigorous than those typically used in the United States. A ‘perfect score’ in Chinese schools is often 95 or higher, while in America it tends to be a 90 or higher.”
It is important to note that the grading system and GPA calculation may vary slightly between different levels of education in China, such as primary, secondary, and tertiary education.
To give a better understanding of the GPA calculation, here is a table showing the grade point conversion scale from percentage to GPA:
Percentage | Grade Point | Letter Grade |
---|---|---|
90-100 | 4.0 | A |
85-89 | 3.7 | A- |
82-84 | 3.3 | B+ |
78-81 | 3.0 | B |
75-77 | 2.7 | B- |
72-74 | 2.3 | C+ |
68-71 | 2.0 | C |
65-67 | 1.7 | C- |
64 and below | 0.0 | F |
In summary, Chinese GPA is calculated by taking the weighted average of grades earned in each class, with a scale of 0-100 and 60 being the passing score. The grading scale in China tends to be more rigorous than in the United States, with a “perfect score” often starting at 95 or higher.
Response via video
This video teaches how to calculate GPA in college by assigning numerical values to letter grades and taking the average. The steps include determining credit hours, point system for letter grades, calculating quality points, and adding up the total number of credit hours and quality points. An example is given where a student with a mix of A’s and B’s calculated their GPA to be 3.53, within the expected range for this letter grade distribution.

The Chinese GPA is calculated using a formula that takes into account the desired grade, RMB, and guanxi. The grades are first converted to the U.S. equivalent for countries other than the U.S.. The GPA converter then converts each U.S. grade equivalent to points using a scale. The points for each class are multiplied by the number of credits or hours for that class, added together, and divided by the total number of credits or hours. Another formula for calculating GPA is GPA={4−3×(100−x)2/160060⩽x⩽10000⩽x<60{displaystyle GPA={begin{cases}4-3times (100-x)^{2}/1600&60leqslant xleqslant 100\0&0leqslant x<60end{cases}}} where x is the genuine score in percentage.
Desired grade x RMB / guanxi = GPA
1) First, the grades are converted to the U.S. equivalent for countries other than the U.S. 2) The GPA converter converts each U.S. grade equivalent to points using the following scale: 3) The points for each class are multiplied by the number of credits or hours for that class, added together, and divided by the total number of credits or hours.
GPA={4−3×(100−x)2/160060⩽x⩽10000⩽x<60{displaystyle GPA={begin{cases}4-3times (100-x)^{2}/1600&60leqslant xleqslant 100\0&0leqslant x<60end{cases}}} Here x{displaystyle x}is the genuine score in percentage.
