First of all, where are you applying to?

Second, you can't convert it from /4 to /7 with a straight number multiplier. Since different unis have different scales (eg. UoM has 6.5 for H2As), you need to give someone all of your scores and have them work it out manually.

Assuming no year level scaling:

HD = 7
D = 6
CR = 5
PA = 4
FAIL = 0

12 HDs = 84
6 Ds = 36
3 CRs = 15
2 PAs = 8

Sum of all scores = 143
Courses taken = 23

GPA = 143/23 = 6.217

Why haven't you taken 24 courses? That's a standard 3 year degree considering all classes are worth 12 units.
