What is General Weighted Average?
The General Weight Average(GWA) is a numerical measure of a student's academic performance, commonly used in the Philippines. It combines the grades and course units into a single average that reflects the overall performance of a student throughout a specific semester, year or academic term.
How is GWA Calculated?
The GWA is calculated using the formula below:
Formula:
It is calculated by multiplying each subject or course grade by its corresponding number of units, adding the products (weighted grades), and then dividing it by the sum of total number of units taken.
Example:
| Subject/Course | Grade | Units |
|---|---|---|
| Subject 1 | 1.75 | 3 |
| Subject 2 | 2.50 | 2 |
| Subject 3 | 1.25 | 3 |
| Subject 4 | 1.50 | 3 |
| Subject 5 | 1.00 | 3 |
First Multiply Each Subject with its corresponding units
Subject 1 - 1.75 x 3 = 5.25
Subject 1 - 2.50 x 2 = 5.00
Subject 1 - 1.25 x 3 = 3.75
Subject 1 - 1.50 x 3 = 4.50
Subject 1 - 1.00 x 3 = 3.00
Next Add all of the units
3 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 14 (total units)
Next Add the weighted grades
15.75 + 5 + 3.75 + 4.50 + 3 = 21.50 (total weighted grades)
Next Divide the total units and total weighted
grades
21.50 ÷ 14 = 1.54
So, the GWA is approximately
1.54.
