what does gpa mean
Grading in education is the process of applying standardized measurements of varying levels of achievement in a course. Grades can be assigned as letters, as a range, as a percentage of a total number of questions answered correctly, or as a number out of a possible total. In some countries, all grades from all current classes are averaged to create a grade point average for the marking period. The GPA is calculated by taking the number of grade points a student earned in a given period of time
