How do they calculate the GPA for someone who did a Bachelor's degree and got a second class upper and wants to apply for a masters program in canada? I am from Kenya, Someone help..

Add the grade points for each course up then divide by the total number of courses to get the average

 

[Mwaurah@17]

In Kenyatta University (KENYA) there is only a cumulative GPA after graduation, no individual grade points for the course. The grading system is diff.
70- 100 First class
60 - 69 second upper
50 - 59 second lower
40 - 49 pass.

My cumulative GPA was 67. How can I calculate late it?

67% comes out to a C+ or a 2.3GPA

How did you calculate that, or how did you come to that conclusion of a 2.3 GPA, I got a second upper (honors) my points were strong
