Two Types of GPA
两种 GPA 计算方式
IUSD reports both an unweighted and a weighted GPA on your transcript. Here's exactly how each one works.
尔湾统一学区的成绩单会同时显示非加权 GPA 和加权 GPA，以下是两者的具体计算规则。
IUSD uses two GPA scales. The table below shows how each letter grade translates into grade points depending on the course type. Unweighted GPA treats every course the same (Regular column). Weighted GPA gives AP and designated Honors courses a one-point boost—but note that only some Honors courses are weighted; confirm with your counselor.
IUSD 使用两种 GPA 计算方式。下表展示了不同课程类型下各字母成绩对应的分值。非加权 GPA 所有课程统一按普通课一列计算；加权 GPA 对 AP 课及部分指定荣誉课额外加 1 分——但并非所有荣誉课都加权，请向辅导员确认。
| Grade等级 | Regular普通课 | AP / Weighted Honors★AP / 加权荣誉课★ |
|---|---|---|
| A | 4.0 | 5.0 |
| B | 3.0 | 4.0 |
| C | 2.0 | 3.0 |
| D | 1.0 | 2.0 |
| F | 0.0 | 1.0 |
★ Not all Honors courses are weighted — check with your counselor which ones qualify.并非所有荣誉课都加权，请向辅导员确认哪些课符合条件。
THE FORMULA计算公式
Worked Example计算示例
A student takes 6 courses: A, A, A, B, A AP, B AP一名学生选了 6 门课：A、A、A、B、A AP、B AP
| Course课程 | Grade成绩 | Unweighted Pts非加权分值 | Weighted Pts加权分值 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Course 1课程 1 | A | 4 | 4 |
| Course 2课程 2 | A | 4 | 4 |
| Course 3课程 3 | A | 4 | 4 |
| Course 4课程 4 | B | 3 | 3 |
| Course 5课程 5 AP | A | 4 | 5 |
| Course 6课程 6 AP | B | 3 | 4 |
| Total ÷ 6 courses合计 ÷ 6 门课 | = 3.67 | = 4.00 | |
The two AP courses don't affect the unweighted GPA, but they push the weighted GPA from 3.67 up to 4.00.
两门 AP 课不改变非加权 GPA，但将加权 GPA 从 3.67 提升到了 4.00。

Common GPA questions关于 GPA 的常见问题
What is a “UC GPA”, and why is it different from my school GPA?“UC GPA”是什么？为什么和学校的 GPA 不一样？
The University of California recalculates your GPA its own way. It only uses A–G courses taken from the summer after 9th grade through the summer after 11th grade. An A is 4, B is 3, C is 2, D is 1, and pluses and minuses don’t count. So the number on your IUSD transcript and your UC GPA are often different.
加州大学（UC）会按自己的方法重新计算 GPA：只算 9 年级结束后的暑假到 11 年级结束后的暑假之间修的 A–G 课程。A 算 4 分、B 算 3 分、C 算 2 分、D 算 1 分，加号减号不算。所以成绩单上的 GPA 和 UC GPA 经常不一样。
Do 9th grade grades count?9 年级的成绩算不算？
Not for the UC GPA. UC counts grades from 10th and 11th grade (plus the summers in between). 9th grade courses still count toward completing your A–G requirements, and they appear on your transcript, so they still matter.
不算进 UC GPA。UC 只算 10、11 年级（以及中间暑假）的成绩。但 9 年级的课仍然算作完成 A–G 要求，也会出现在成绩单上，所以依然重要。
How many Honors and AP classes add an extra point for UC?申请 UC 时，有多少门 Honors 和 AP 课能加分？
For California residents, each semester of a UC-approved honors course (AP, IB HL, designated IB SL, UC-transferable college courses, or a UC-certified honors course on your school’s list) adds one point, for grades of C or better. UC counts at most 8 of these honors points across 10th and 11th grade, and no more than 4 from 10th grade.
对加州居民来说，UC 认可的荣誉课程（AP、IB HL、指定的 IB SL、可转学分的大学课程，或学校名单上经 UC 认证的 Honors 课）每学期加 1 分，成绩需要 C 或以上。10、11 年级合计最多加 8 分，其中 10 年级最多 4 分。
What GPA do I need for UC?申请 UC 需要多少 GPA？
The minimum UC GPA is 3.0 for California residents and 3.4 for nonresidents. That is the minimum to be considered, not a typical admitted GPA. Most campuses admit students well above it.
UC 的最低 GPA 要求是加州居民 3.0、非加州居民 3.4。这只是能被考虑的门槛，不是录取学生的常见 GPA，大部分校区录取的学生远高于这个数字。
Is CSU the same?CSU 也是这样算吗？
The California State University also calculates its own GPA from A–G courses, with its own rules and minimums. Check calstate.edu for the current details, and ask your school counselor if you’re unsure which courses count.
加州州立大学（CSU）也会用 A–G 课程自己计算 GPA，但规则和最低要求不同。最新细节请查看 calstate.edu，不确定哪些课算的话，可以问学校辅导员。
