A weighted grade or a WGPA which stands for a Weighted Grade Point Average is a measurement of a student's academic achievements. This method of evaluation is used mostly in North America.
In some educational institutions like high schools, to mirror the differing skill needed for courses with varying levels and to prevent students from choosing 'simple A's', they provide higher numerical grades for tough courses, which is usually called as a weighted GPA. For instance, two frequently used conversion methods that are used in honours programs are: A = 5 or 4.6, B = 4 or 3.5, C = 3 or 2.1, D = 1, F = 0. Another method adopted by schools is to copy the eleven point weighted scale by adding an extra .33 to an honours program or an advanced placement course.
