Frequently Asked Questions

What is CGPA and how is it different from SGPA?

CGPA is the cumulative average across all completed semesters. SGPA is the average for a single semester. CGPA = (sum of SGPA × credits per semester) / (total credits).

Is CGPA on a 10-point or 4-point scale?

It depends on the institution. Most Indian universities use 10-point CGPA. North American universities use 4-point GPA. Choose the matching scale on this calculator.

How do I include credit hours when calculating CGPA?

Each semester contributes weighted by its credit count. For example, a 9.0 SGPA in a 24-credit semester contributes more than a 9.5 in a 12-credit one. The calculator handles this automatically.

Why does my CGPA differ slightly from the official transcript?

Universities sometimes round at the semester level before averaging, while a true weighted average uses unrounded values. Differences are usually within 0.05.
