It's too complex to calculate yourself, leave it to the uni

The grade point average (GPA) for grades obtained from 2001 is calculated as follows:

GPA = (4w + 3x + 2y + 1z + 0f) divided by e where

w is the number of credit points gained at HD and D,
x is the number of credit points gained at CR,
y is the number of credit points gained at P,
z is the number of credit points gained at PC,
e is the total number of credit points for which a student is effectively enrolled (excluding units with W or any other grade not included in the above formula)
f is the number of credit points gained with an F grade.
The grade point average of an applicant who has been enrolled for the BA DipEd, BBA DipEd, BCom DipEd, BEc DipEd or BSc DipEd course will be calculated on the basis of the entire program and not just on the level of performance for the BA, BBA, BCom, BE or BSc degree.

It is important to note that the GPA is based on your entire academic record at Macquarie. That is the GPA includes all units in any degree program ever taken by you at Macquarie. Repeating units does not remove previous failed units from your transcript. It is not a semester based calculation.

A GPA calculator can be accessed from the Macquarie University Undergraduate Studies Section web page at http://www.reg.mq.edu.au/Undergrad

What would be considered a competitive GPA?

 

[Doomah]

competitive for a job? or for a transfer?
3.0+ is what u should aim for

I regard competitive as credit average, but it is a personal thing I guess. Employers might be more interested in experience or extra-curricular activities than marks, or vice versa.
