How this calculation works
Compute a credit-weighted average for courses already expressed on a 0–4 grade-point scale. Pair each course grade with its own credits, so a four-credit subject contributes more than a one-credit subject. This does not translate marks or letter grades into grade points; obtain that mapping from your institution first.
Worked example
This example uses illustrative inputs. Your current result is shown above.
For grade points 4, 3.7 and 3.3 with matching credits 4, 3 and 3, weighted points are 16 + 11.1 + 9.9 = 37. Total credits = 10, so GPA = 37/10 = 3.7.
Assumptions and limits
- Use the institution’s numerical 0–4 grade points, not percentage marks.
- The two lists must have the same number of entries, in matching order, and every credit must be positive.
- Pass/fail exclusions, repeated-course replacement and transcript rounding are not inferred.
Questions people ask
Does this convert a 10-point CGPA to a 4-point GPA?
No. It averages course grades already on a 4-point scale. Cross-system equivalence requires the receiving institution’s rules and cannot be inferred by dividing by a constant.
Should a failed course be omitted?
Follow your transcript policy. If its attempted credits count, include those credits with the assigned grade point; omitting them would raise the calculated average.
