Also, have a look at the High school GPA calculator. Let us understand how the overall GPA system works.

GPA (Grade Point Average) is a set of points against a particular grade. When scoring that grade, the respective GPA is awarded to you.

The biggest concern for any student at college or university is to score a high GPA because that helps him in getting good employment options. To determine the overall GPA in a semester, you need to follow the formula given below.

## GPA Formula

$\mathbf{GPA = \dfrac{Total Points Earned}{Total Credits Attempted}}$

## What is CGPA?

CGPA defines the total or overall GPA which a student scores in a semester. It combines all the individual GPAs that the student has attained in a specific semester.

Remember that the courses with higher credit hours greatly impact the GPA score. In other words, scoring a low GPA in a 4 credit hour course would be more damaging than scoring low in a 3 credit hour course.

## How to calculate GPA?

If you are wondering "what is my GPA?" or "How to calculate my GPA", Don't worry because below is an example explaining the calculation of GPA.

### Example:

A student had two subjects this semester. The result of the subjects was as follows.

Subject Name Credit hours GPA
Subject A 4 3.33
Subject B 3 2.33

Find GPA.

### Solution:

GPA = $\frac{\left(3.33\:\cdot \:4\right)+\left(2.33\:\cdot \:3\right)}{7}$

GPA = $\frac{\left(13.42\:+\:6.99\right)}{7}$

GPA = $\frac{20.31}{7}$

GPA = 2.9

Usually, in educational institutes, only grades are rewarded. This causes a problem for those who want to calculate GPA manually. So, the grade table helps the student to know what grade means what GPA.

A 4.0 4.0
A- 3.7 3.7
B+ 3.3 3.3
B 3.0 3.0

C 2.0 2.0
C- 1.7 1.7
D+ 1.3 1.3
