Figuring out GPA from CLEP & DANTE tests - L_Hancock - 01-25-2010
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!

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
