What is CGPA?

CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is the average of grade points obtained in all semesters. It's a standardized way of measuring academic achievement in universities and colleges.

  2. Input the credit hours for each course (typically 1-6 credits)
  3. Enter your score percentage (0-100) for each course
  4. The grade and grade points will be automatically calculated
  5. Click "Calculate GPA" to see your results

Grading Scale Used

  • A: 90-100% (4.00) - Excellent
  • A-: 85-89% (3.75) - Very Good
  • B+: 80-84% (3.50) - Good
  • B: 75-79% (3.00) - Above Average
  • B-: 70-74% (2.75) - Average
  • C+: 65-69% (2.50) - Satisfactory
  • C: 60-64% (2.00) - Acceptable
  • C-: 55-59% (1.75) - Fair
  • D: 50-54% (1.00) - Passing
  • F: Below 50% (0.00) - Fail

CGPA Formula

CGPA = Σ (Credit Hours × Grade Points) / Σ (Credit Hours)

For example, if you have 3 courses each worth 3 credits with grades A (4.0), B+ (3.5), and B (3.0), your GPA would be: (3×4.0 + 3×3.5 + 3×3.0) / (3+3+3) = (12 + 10.5 + 9) / 9 = 31.5 / 9 = 3.5
