A Level Grades to GPA Converter

The following images are the NTU grade profiles from 2008 to 2012. Of course A level results cannot be converted to Polytechnic GPA, but I created a mathematical method which allowed me to approximate the GPA from the data acquired from 3 H2 and 1 H1 grades so that we can compare the cut off between the 2 different format.

Caution: User should use these data for reference, but not for serious work.
Note: Only 3 H2, 1 H1 results used for comparison.
Weightage: H2:H1 = 2:1 (H2 weighs 2 times more than H1 grades).
Maximum GPA: 4.00, Minimum GPA: 0.00.





The following table shows the A level result to GPA converter. ABC/A is the same as BAC/A, for instance if you cannot find BAC/A, search for ABC/A.


The data below is the same as the images above. If you see 4 similar courses below, these are actually not duplication; they are data from different years. However, it is sorted according to the A level results in ascending order, which allows you to compare between 2 different format easily. These converted data is only accurate for NTU cut off (not for NUS or SMU). Take note that those grade profiles are the 10th percentile.
