A- 4.67 3.67
B+ 4.33 3.33
B 4.00 3.00
B- 3.67 2.67
C+ 3.33 2.33

D+ 2.33 1.33
D 2.00 1.00
D- 1.67 0.67
F 0.00 0.00

F 0.00 0.00 0.00

4. To compute a student's grade point average, the point value for each grade is multiplied by the number of times the subject meets per cycle. The total of these products is then divided by the sum of the times all subjects meet per cycle.
