How to calculate CGPA [Check yours now]

This posts will guide and teach you on how to calculate your Grade Point Average (G.P.A) and also Cumulative Grade Point Average (C.G.P.A). This is usually done when you must have seen your semester results to know where your stand is in the university.

What do I mean by stand? I mean whether you are in

• First class
• Second class upper
• Second class lower
• Third class
• Pass
• Fail.

After going through this post, I assure you that when ever you are asked to calculate your G.P.A, it will as simple as ABC.

BASIC DEFINITIONS

• Letter grades are in alphabetical representation. Point weighting is the number equivalent of letter Grades.
• Credit hours may be defined as the contact hours assigned to each course per week per semester.
• Grade Point (GP) is the product of the point weighing and the credit hour(s) for a given course.
• Point grade= point weighing  X  credit hour
• Grade point Average in any semester is the ration of the sum of grade points to the sum of credit hour(s) in other words avarage performance.
• GPA = Point grade/Work load
• Cummulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the up-to-date mean of the grade points earned by the student in the program of study.
• However, it is usually computed for each Academic year.
• CGPA = (1st Semester GPA + 2nd Semester GPA) / 2
• Final Cumulative Grade Point Average (FCGPA) is the sum of all your CGPA divided by the number of years spent in the programme of study.

FOR EXAMPLE, THIS IS THE GRADING SYSTEM IN UNIVERSITY IF NIGERIA

% Scale	Letter	Point weighing
70-100	A	5
60-69	B	4
50-59	C	3
45-49	D	2
0-44	F	0

SAMPLE OF A STUDENT'S 1ST SEMESTER RESULT

Course	Credit	Letter	Point	Point
	Hour	grades	weight	grade
GSP101	2	B	4	2 X 4 = 8
GSP102	2	B	4	2 X 4 = 8
SOC103	2	B	4	2 X 4 = 8
POL101	3	A	5	3 X 5 = 15
MTH111	3	A	5	3 X 5 = 15
PHY111	3	A	5	3 X 5 = 15
ENGR101	2	C	3	2 X 3 = 6
BIO101	2	A	5	2 X 5 = 10
PHY121	2	C	3	2 X 3 = 6
	Total= 21			Total= 91

G.P.A = 91/21 = 4.333

G.P.A	CLASS OF DEGREE
4.5 - 5.0	1ST CLASS
3.5 - 4.49	2ND CLASS UPPER
2.5 - 3.49	2ND CLASS LOWER
1.5 - 2.49	3RD CLASS
1.0 - 1.49	PASS
0.0 - 0.99	FAIL
