You just got your semester results, and instead of a simple percentage, you see something like "8.5 SGPA". Confused? You are not alone.
Most companies and universities ask for Percentage during job placements or higher studies applications. Converting your SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) to Percentage isn't always straightforward because different universities use different formulas.
Content Overview:
1. What is SGPA & CGPA?
Before calculating, let's understand the terms:
- SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average): Performance in a single semester.
- CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average): Overall performance of all semesters combined till date.
2. The Universal Formula
There is no single formula for all of India, but the most common one used by AICTE and many autonomous colleges is:
Example: If SGPA is 8.0 -> (8.0 - 0.75) * 10 = 72.5%
HOWEVER, many modern universities have simplified this to a direct multiplication.
