How is CGPA calculated?

<p>The CGPA can be calculated by applying the basic CGPA formula given below.</p><p><strong>CGPA = (Total Grade Points Earned) / (Total Credit Hours Attempted)</strong></p><p>Here is the step-by-step guidance on how you can calculate your CGPA using the above formula:</p><ol><li>Understand the grading system used by your college/institution which involves assigning a grade point to a letter grade.&nbsp;</li><li>Now calculate the grade points for each course by multiplying the credit hours of each course by its corresponding grade point. This gives you the weighted grade points for each course/subject.</li><li>Now calculate the total grade points and credit hours of all the subjects and apply these values in the above formula to get your CGPA.</li></ol><p>For example, suppose a student takes 4 courses with the following grades and credit hours:</p><table dir="ltr" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><colgroup><col width="100"><col width="100"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th>Course</th><th>Grade</th><th>Credit Hours</th><th>Grade Points</th><th><div><div>Weighted Grade Points</div></div></th></tr><tr><td>Math</td><td>A+</td><td>3</td><td>9</td><td>27</td></tr><tr><td>Science</td><td>B+</td><td>4</td><td>7</td><td>28</td></tr><tr><td>English</td><td>A</td><td>3</td><td>8</td><td>24</td></tr><tr><td>History</td><td>C</td><td>2</td><td>5</td><td>10</td></tr></tbody></table><p>&nbsp;Hence, &nbsp;<strong>Total Credit Hours:</strong>&nbsp;3 + 4 + 3 + 2 = 12</p><p><strong>Total Grade Points:</strong>&nbsp;27 + 28 + 24 + 10 = 89</p><p><strong>CGPA:</strong>&nbsp;89 / 12 = 7.42</p><div dir="ltr"><p>In this example, the student's CGPA is 7.42 on a 10-point scale.</p></div>
