Calculation of Grade Point Average (GPA)

On the basis of the relative grading assigned by the faculty for each paper, the grade point average is arrived as follows:

  1. Multiply the credits by the points assigned to the grade concerned
  2. Add the points arrived at for all the papers of the term
  3. Divide the points by the total number of credits

Total Credits 21                Grade Point Average = 99 divided by 21 = 4.71

 

Calculation of Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)

 

The total grade points of different terms divided by the total number of credits indicates the Cumulative Grade Point Average
