Grade Point Average is the full form of GPA. GPA corresponds to the educational grading system used to measure students' academic performance in college and school. It is a numerical score that provides a clear summary of the main aspects of a student's academic success or reflection in an academic year.
The measurement of GPA at different types of educational institutions varies on different scales. For some schools, the scale appears on a 1-5 scale and for other schools on a 1-10 scale. Total GPA is the average of all complete final grades earned in a subject, course, or academic achievement over time.
Importance of GPA
- Many organizations use GPA for accuracy to qualify and fit a candidate's career.
- In an interview, these organizations often find that GPA in academics is separated from selection results.
- GPA cannot calculate a candidate's success. It can be used to determine an applicant's evaluation and performance.
- Recent GPA analysis and research has found no correlation between an employee's performance and their GPA.
Benefits of GPA
- The educational assessment method reduced the student's assessment burden and allowed them to learn without stress.
- The education degree category is based on an advanced classification system.
- An educational assessment system helps students identify their strengths and weaknesses.
- The classification standard of education in many ways simplified and made studies more visible.
Limitations

- The educational classification standard demotivates higher performing students compared to those who serve less because they are at the same level in percentile classification.
- Students are growing ignorant due to lethargy as the standard of assessment in education allocates grades to various tasks including assignments, presentations and final exams.
- The education standard is poor in providing students with accurate results.
