Question 307093:  Some courses contribute more towards an overall GPA than other courses. For example, a science class is worth 4 points, mathematics is worth 3 points, History is worth 2 points, and English is worth 3 points. The values of the grade letters are as follows, A= 4, B= 3, C= 2, D= 1, F= 0. What is the GPA of a student who made a "C" in Trigonometry, a "B" in American History, an "A" in Botany, and a "B" in Microbiology?
