What Is CGPA?
CGPA stands for Cumulative Grade Point Average. It represents your overall academic performance across all completed semesters. Unlike GPA, which is calculated for a single semester, CGPA reflects long-term consistency in academic results.
How to Calculate CGPA?
To calculate CGPA, you need the GPA of each completed semester.
Steps:
- Add all semester GPAs
- Count total semesters
- Divide the total GPA by the number of semesters

CGPA Formula
CGPA = (Sum of GPA of all semesters) ÷ (Total number of semesters)
Example: If your semester GPAs are 3.2, 3.5, 3.8, 3.6:
CGPA = (3.2 + 3.5 + 3.8 + 3.6) ÷ 4
CGPA = 3.53
Difference Between GPA and CGPA
| GPA | CGPA |

CGPA to Percentage Conversion
Many institutions convert CGPA into percentage using different formulas. A common method is:
