Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert marks to percentage?+

Percentage = (Marks Obtained / Total Marks) × 100. For example, scoring 72 out of 100 = 72%. Scoring 360 out of 500 = (360/500) × 100 = 72%.

What is a GPA and how is it calculated?+

GPA (Grade Point Average) is a numerical representation of academic performance on a scale, most commonly 4.0 in India and the US. An A+ (90%+) maps to 4.0, A (80–89%) to 3.7, B (70–79%) to 3.0, and so on. Universities may use their own specific scales.

What percentage is needed to pass in most Indian exams?+

Most Indian board examinations (CBSE, state boards) require a minimum of 33% to pass each subject. Some professional courses require 40–50%. University exams often require 35–40% in each paper and an aggregate of 45–50% to qualify.

What is the difference between GPA and CGPA?+

GPA is the grade point average for a single semester or term. CGPA (Cumulative GPA) is the average across all semesters completed so far. Most Indian engineering colleges use a 10-point CGPA scale rather than the 4.0 GPA scale.
