I am in the middle of calculating my GPA and I just want to make sure that I am calculating my GPA the right way so please help me out guys

...the ADEA AADSAS website provided a pdf saying:

"To calculate a grade-point average (GPA), ADEA AADSAS calculates your total quality points by multiplying semester hours attempted by the value of the verified ADEA AADSAS grade. Quarter hours and units are converted to semester hours (quarter hours are multiplied by .667). Quality points are divided by the total number of hours for completed courses to calculate a GPA. ADEA AADSAS reports GPAs in semester-based 4.0 grading scales."

Example:

CLASS --------Grade ------ Quarter Units

Physics -------- A ----------- 5
Biology ---------B+ -----------5
Chem ---------- C+ ---------- 5

ADEA AADSAS says that they convert QUARTER units to SEMESTER Units by multiplying it by .667. So our three 5 units courses would be converted to a value of 3.335

A = (4.00) x 3.335 = 13.34 quality pts
B+ = (3.33) x 3.335 = 11.11 quality pts
C+ = (2.33) x 3.335 = 7.77 quality pts
...................10.00 .32.22

So my final GPA for this example would be 32.22 ttl quality pts / 10.00 semester units = [3.22]

Is this correct?
