What is the Credit System?
The Credit System is a modern educational method widely adopted in universities in Vietnam and around the world. In this system, each course is assigned a certain number of credits corresponding to the knowledge volume and study time.
Features of the Credit System:
- Credit: A unit measuring study volume. 1 credit = 15 theory periods or 30-45 practice periods.
- Flexibility: Students can choose courses and schedules according to their abilities.
- Independence: Encourages self-study and research spirit.
- Evaluation: More objective and transparent through GPA (Grade Point Average).
What is GPA?
GPA (Grade Point Average) is a comprehensive indicator reflecting students' learning achievement. GPA is calculated based on the grades and number of credits of each course.
Types of GPA:
- Term GPA: Average score of one semester.
- Cumulative GPA: Average score of all studied semesters.
- Major GPA: Average score of major courses only.
GPA Calculation Formula
GPA is calculated by the following formula:
GPA = (Σ (Grade × Credit)) / (Σ Credit)
- Multiply the grade of each course by its credits
- Sum all products from step 1
- Divide by the total number of credits
Note: Grades are converted to a 4.0 scale according to each school's regulations. Most schools use the conversion table: A (8.5-10) = 4.0, B (7.0-8.4) = 3.0, C (5.5-6.9) = 2.0, D (4.0-5.4) = 1.0, F (<4.0) = 0.
GPA Classification
Most universities in Vietnam classify academic achievement based on the 4.0 scale as follows:
Excellent: GPA ≥ 3.60
Good: 3.20 ≤ GPA < 3.60
Fair: 2.50 ≤ GPA < 3.20
Average: 2.00 ≤ GPA < 2.50
Weak: GPA < 2.00
Note: Some schools may have different classification criteria. Please refer to your school's regulations for accuracy.
