Gpa-Cgpa Formula With Example

This document provides examples for calculating grade point average (GPA) for a single semester and cumulative grade point average (CGPA) across multiple semesters. The GPA is calculated by summing the product of course credit hours and grade points earned, divided by total credit hours for the semester. The CGPA is calculated by summing the product of course credit hours and grade points earned across all semesters, divided by total credit hours taken across all semesters. A worked example shows a student with a GPA of 2.81 for one semester and a CGPA of 2.35 after two semesters.

GPA Example
The example below, based on a single semester, illustrates how the GPA is calculated

Courses Course 1 Course 2 Course 3 Course 4 Course 5 Course 6 Total

Credit Hours 03 03 03 03 02 03 17

Grade A+ A B+ BC+ D

Numeric Value of Grades 4.00 3.70 3.40 2.50 2.00 1.00

Grade Points for Course


Credit Hours x Numeric Value of Grades

3x4.00=12 3x3.70=11.1 3x3.40=10.2 3x2.50=7.5 2x2.00=4 1x3.00=3 12+11.1+10.2+7.5+4+3=47.8

GPA* Formula: Sum over Courses in Semester (Course Credit Hours x Grade Point Earned) Total Semester Credit Hours Putting the values in GPA Formula.

So GPA is 2.81.

CGPA Example
The example below, based on 02 semesters, illustrates how the CGPA is calculated

First Semester
Courses Course 1 Course 2 Course 3 Course 4 Course 5 Course 6 Total GPA is 47.8/17 = 2.81 Credit Hours 03 03 03 03 02 03 17 Grade A+ A B+ BC+ D Numeric Value of Grades 4.00 3.70 3.40 2.50 2.00 1.00 Grade Points for Course
Credit Hours x Numeric Value of Grades

3x4.00=12 3x3.70=11.1 3x3.40=10.2 3x2.50=7.5 2x2.00=4 1x3.00=3 12+11.1+10.2+7.5+4+3 = 47.8

Second Semester
Courses Course 1 Course 2 Course 3 Course 4 Course 5 Course 6 Course 7 Total GPA is 34.5/18 = 1.92 CGPA Formula: Sum over all Taken Courses in all Semester (Course Credit Hours x Grade Point Earned) Total Credit Hours Taken in All Semester 47.8+34.5 = 82.3 / 35 = 2.35 17+18 So CGPA of 02 semesters is 2.35 CGPA is not the average of each semester GPA. Putting the values in CGPA Formula. Credit Hours 03 02 03 03 03 03 1 18 Grade C D A+ B C+ BF Numeric Value of Grades 1.50 1.00 4.00 3.00 2.00 2.50 0.00 Grade Points for Course
Credit Hours x Numeric Value of Grades

3x1.50=4.5 2x1.00=2 3x4.00=12 3x3.00=9 2x2.00=4 1x3.00=3 1x0.00=0 4.5+2+12+9+4+3+0 = 34.5
