How it works

List this term's courses with the letter or percent you earned and the credit hours.
Each grade converts to quality points on the scale shown above (on /au pages, choose UQ, Monash, or the generic example preset).
Semester GPA (SGPA on India 10-point) is quality points divided by credit hours — it does not include past terms.

Formula

Semester GPA = quality points this term ÷ credit hours this term

Example: English A (4.0 × 3 cr = 12 QP) and Math B (3.0 × 3 cr = 9 QP) → 21 ÷ 6 = 3.50 semester GPA. On India 10-point, O/A+/A map to 10/9/8 points the same way. Letter cut-offs use the unrounded result.
