CGPA Formula
CGPA = (Σ GPA × Credits) ÷ Σ Credits
Example: Sem1 (GPA 7.5, Credits 20), Sem2 (GPA 8.0, Credits 22) → CGPA = (7.5×20 + 8.0×22) ÷ 42 = 7.76

Frequently Asked Questions
CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is the average of grade points across all semesters. Formula: CGPA = Total Grade Points ÷ Total Credits. Most universities use a 10-point scale where 10 = A+, 9 = A, 8 = B+, etc. A CGPA of 8.0 means you're performing well above average.
Different universities have different conversion formulas. Most common: Percentage = CGPA × 9.5 (for 10-point scale). Example: CGPA 8.0 × 9.5 = 76%. Some universities use 10-point multiplier: Percentage = CGPA × 10. Always check your university's official conversion formula.
A CGPA of 8.0+ is generally considered very good. 7.0-7.9 is good. 6.0-6.9 is average. Below 6.0 needs improvement. For placements, companies often have cutoffs of 6.0, 6.5, or 7.0. For higher studies abroad, aim for 8.0+.
GPA is for a single semester. CGPA is cumulative across all semesters. Example: Semester 1 GPA = 7.5, Semester 2 GPA = 8.0 → CGPA after 2 semesters = (7.5 + 8.0) ÷ 2 = 7.75. CGPA gives your overall academic performance picture.
SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) = (Credit × Grade Point for each course) ÷ Total Credits. Example: Course A: 3 credits, grade 8, Course B: 4 credits, grade 7 → SGPA = (3×8 + 4×7) ÷ 7 = 7.43. Our calculator handles this automatically.
The 10-point scale is most common in Indian universities. Grade points: A+ (10), A (9), B+ (8), B (7), C+ (6), C (5), D (4), F (0). Percentage equivalent approximately: CGPA × 9.5. This scale makes it easy to compare performance across different universities.
