Understanding the Grading System
Your Grade Point Average (GPA) is a standard mathematical metric used by educational institutions worldwide to evaluate your academic performance. It is calculated by dividing the total number of grade points earned by the total number of credit hours attempted.
- Credit Hours: The weightage of a specific course, usually determined by the number of hours the class meets per week (commonly 3 or 4 credits).
- Grade Point: The numerical value assigned to the letter grade you achieved in the course (e.g., An 'A' is universally a 4.0, a 'B' is 3.0, etc.).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between GPA and CGPA?
GPA (Grade Point Average) measures your academic performance for a single, specific semester. CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) measures your overall academic performance across all completed semesters in your degree.
How do you calculate Semester GPA?
To calculate your semester GPA, multiply the credit hours of each subject by the grade points earned in that subject. Add these totals together, and divide by the total number of credit hours attempted in that semester.
How is the new CGPA calculated?
New CGPA is calculated by taking your previous total points (Previous CGPA x Previous Credits) and adding them to your current semester points. Then, divide this grand total by the new total sum of all credits.
