How GPA Is Calculated
GPA Benchmarks

Le Calcul

Moyenne pondérée = Σ(note × coefficient) ÷ Σ(coefficients). Maths (15/20, coeff 4) + Français (12/20, coeff 3) + Anglais (16/20, coeff 2) : (60+36+32) ÷ 9 = 14,22/20. Les coefficients reflètent l'importance relative de chaque matière dans la formation.

Système Français vs GPA

France : notes sur 20. 10 = passable, 12 = assez bien, 14 = bien, 16 = très bien. États-Unis : GPA sur 4,0. A=4, B=3, C=2. Conversion approximative : note française ÷ 5 ≈ GPA. 14/20 ≈ 2,8 GPA. 16/20 ≈ 3,2 GPA. Les conversions sont approximatives car les systèmes de notation sont fondamentalement différents.

⚡ CalcWolf Insight

Grade inflation is real: the average college GPA rose from 2.5 in the 1960s to 3.15 today. An A was once exceptional; now it is the most common grade at many universities. This means a 3.0 GPA in 2026 is roughly equivalent to a 2.5 from 30 years ago in terms of class standing.
