FYI..



In some Secondary Schools, Grade Point Averages are used. The Grade Point Average is calculated by taking the Grade Point of each subject, adding them together, then dividing the total by the amount of subjects the student takes. This value is rounded to two decimal places, giving the student's GPA. A minimum GPA of 2.0 will usually be required for promotion.

For example, the GPA table for Raffles Girls' School and Raffles Institution (Secondary) is as below:
Grade \tPercentage \tGrade Point
A+ --------\t80-100 --------\t4.0
A ------\t70-79 -------\t3.6
B+---- \t65-69 --------\t3.2
B -----\t60-64 -------\t2.8
C+ ----\t55-59 -------\t2.4
C -----\t50-54 -------\t2.0
D ------\t45-49 -------\t1.6
E ------\t40-44 -------\t1.2
F -----\t<40 ---------\t0.8
