Understanding CGPA to Percentage Calculator: Simple Guide and Formulas

Many students encounter the need to convert their Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) into a percentage. Whether for job applications, further studies, or personal record-keeping, understanding how to make this conversion is crucial. Here’s a simple guide to help you understand the process.

About CGPA & it's full form?

The full form of CGPA is Cumulative Grade Point Average. It is a grading system used in many educational institutions to assess a student’s overall academic performance. Instead of using percentages, CGPA uses a scale typically ranging from 0.0 to 10.0 like 9.5, 5.0, or 4.0, depending on the institution and country.

Why Convert CGPA to Percentage?

While CGPA provides a broad overview of academic performance, many organizations require percentage scores for various purposes, such as job applications or eligibility criteria for further studies. Hence, converting CGPA to a percentage becomes necessary.

CGPA to percentage calculator formula

The formula to convert CGPA to percentage is straightforward:

\[ \text{Percentage} = \text{CGPA} \times 10 \]

For example, if the maximum CGPA or scale is 10.0, and a student’s CGPA is 8.5, then the percentage would be:

\[ \text{Percentage} = 8.5 \times 10 = 85\% \]

What else if the factor is 9.5?

If the multiplier is 9.5 then the formula will be \[ \text{Percentage} = \text{CGPA} \times 9.5 \] For example, if the CGPA is 8.9 then the percentage would be \[ \text{Percentage} = \text{8.9} \times 9.5 = 74.5\% \]

If the maximum CGPA is 4.0, the formula remains the same; only the maximum CGPA value changes accordingly.

Practical Example for scale 4.0:

Let’s say a student’s CGPA is 3.2 on a scale of 4.0. To convert this to a percentage.

Formula \[ \text{Percentage} = \text{CGPA} \times 25 \] Calculation \[ \text{Percentage} = 3.2 \times 25 = 80\% \]

Thus, the student’s percentage equivalent of a CGPA of 3.2 is 80%.

The table below shows the percentage for all CGPA.

How to convert CGPA to percentage in excel where the formula is 'percentage = (cgpa * 9.5)'.

To convert CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) to percentage in Excel using the formula percentage = CGPA * 9.5, you can follow these steps:

  1. Enter your CGPA value in a column. Suppose you entered in coloumn A.
  2. In the next column, write as =(A1 * 9.5) and press enter.
  3. Your answer will automatically shown there.
  4. If you have many entries (CGPA) so simply drag that cell.

You can use the same steps for the formula 'percentage = (cgpa/10)*100'.

FAQ

What is CGPA full form?
The CGPA stands for Cumulative Grade Point Average.
What is the CGPA multiplying factor?
The multiplying factor for CGPA may vary. Many universities, boards, and institutions, have different formulas to calculate CGPA in percentage. In most places, the formula is CGPA * 9.5, but there are many other places where CGPA * 10 is correct. If we check for SPPU then the formula is CGPA * 8.9.
Is the 10th scale the only scale?

This is one of the most common grading scales used globally. In this scale, the CGPA is calculated on a scale of 0 to 10, with 10 being the highest grade achievable.

Another famous point scale is 4.0 scale or 4-point scale. This is famous in many North American institutions. In this scale, the grades are typically A, B, C, and D, with corresponding grade points of 4, 3, 2, and 1 respectively.

Does CGPA have a common or the same formula to calculate the percentage?
The formula to convert CGPA to percentage can vary depending on the educational institution, university, or system. However, a commonly used formula is: \[ \text{Percentage} = \frac{\text{CGPA}}{\text{Max CGPA or Scale}} \times 100 \] Where the 'maximum cgpa' or 'scale' typically falls within the range of 9.5 to 10. This scale is chosen based on factors such as the grading scale and the maximum possible CGPA.

In many cases, the scale used is 9.5, especially in Indian education systems. However, this may vary in different countries or institutions.

For 9.5 scale, the formula is \[ \text{Percentage} = \text{CGPA} \times 9.5 \] and the 4.0 scale, the formula is \[ \text{Percentage} = \text{CGPA} \times 25 \]
