How it works

List this term's courses with the letter or percent you earned and the credit hours.
Each grade is converted to quality points using the grading scale shown in the calculator (change the scale on worldwide pages; country hub pages lock to a regional 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.
