CGPA vs. GPA
GPA covers one term; CGPA is the credit-weighted average across all completed terms. Simply averaging semester GPAs is only correct when every semester carries identical credits — otherwise heavier semesters must count more, which is what this calculator does.
On 10-point scales common in India, the widely used CBSE conversion multiplies CGPA by 9.5 to estimate a percentage. Many universities publish their own conversion, so always check official rules for applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
▸How do I convert CGPA to percentage?
The common CBSE formula is percentage = CGPA × 9.5 on a 10-point scale. Universities may use different multipliers — use your institution's official formula for transcripts.
▸Can my CGPA recover after a bad semester?
Yes, but the more credits you accumulate the more inertia your CGPA has. Strong performance in remaining high-credit semesters moves it most.
