- Calculations of GPA, SGPA, & CGPA
a) Grade point average (GPA):
The Grade Point Average is calculated for every Course by multiplying the Grade Point with the credits allotted for the Course.
GPA = Course Credit x Grade Point
b) Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA):
Semester Grade Point Average is calculated by adding the GPA of all the courses and dividing the sum with total number of credits allotted to each semester.
Course Credit x Grade Points for all Courses in each Semester
Course Credits of each Semester
c) Cumulative grade point average (CGPA):
The Cumulative Grade Point Average for the programme taken up by a student is calculated by adding the products of SGPA and Semester Credits of all the Semesters and dividing the sum by the total number of credits (100 Credits).
(Course Credits) x (Grade Points) for all courses of all semesters
Course Credits of all semesters.
