Hi,
I'm trying to gestimate what my GPA would be from just CLEP & DANTE tests for job purposes (I haven't taken any actual college classes yet). Anyone have any suggestions on this? Even just knowning what the letter (i.e. A, B, C etc.)(I know that 50 = C, but I don't know the aprox. breakdown for the rest). Any help on more info for the CLEP and all info for the DANTE tests would be helpful, as I can convert it from letter to a number on the 4 point scale.
THANKS!

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.
Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully

I'd be hesitant to write anything official- like in a job type situation where you are turning in something to HR, be it a resume, application, request for reimbursement, etc. REALLY, it's fun to see what would be a "B" or whatnot, but the College Board doesn't award credit or a GPA, so you really don't have a GPA unless a college gives you one. To me, it appears less than honest if you calculate a GPA based on your scores. Just my 2 cents.

That is the kind of thing that can come back and bite you in the a$$. Any falsehood on a job application is usually cause for immediate dismissal.
I just like to see what they would be if they got grades, I am a obsessive sort lately I want all A'sbanghead
