How Students’ CGPAs Are Calculated
Consider the below assumption
The academic details of a student whose name is ‘XYZ’ is outlined below,
Course Offered — Course Unit — Score — Grade Point
| Course offered | course unit | score | grade |
| Phy111 | 3 | 82 | A, 4.0 |
| Phy112 | 3 | 68 | B, 3.0 |
| Phy113 | 3 | 75 | A, 4.0 |
| Mat111 | 4 | 74 | A, 4.0 |
| CSC111 | 3 | 65 | B, 3.0 |
| Zoo111 | 2 | 72 | A, 4.0 |
| Zoo 114 | 3 | 58 | C, 2.5 |
| GES111 | 2 | 81 | A, 4.0 |
| GES112 | 2 | 74 | A, 4.0 |
| GES113 | 2 | 70 | A, 4.0 |
| CHE111 | 4 | 68 | A, 3.0 |
| CHE112 | 3 | 76 | A, 4.0 |
| CHE113 | 3 | 81 | A, 4.0 |
| CHE116 | 3 | 76 | A, 4.0 |
| Zoo119 | 3 | 88 | B, 3.0 |
| CSC113 | 3 | 71 | A, 4.0 |
Total course units — 46
CGPA = (course unit x grade point) + (course unit x grade point) + (course unit + grade point) ……… / total course unit
Using the results above,
CGPA = (3×4) + (3×3) + (3×4) + (4×4)+ (3×3) + (2×4) + (3×2) + (2×4) + (2×4) + (2×4) +(4×3) + (3×4) + (3×4) + (3×4) + (3×4) + (3×4) / 46
= 12+9+12+16+9+8+6+8+8+8+12+12+12+12+12+12 / 46
= 168 /46
= 3.65
CGPA = 3.65 (Out of 4.00)
