GRADING SYSTEM
For the grading of students, the performance of the students is first marked according to the conventional procedure. Marks are then converted into Grades and the grades in turn into Grade Points in accordance with Four Point grading system using the following Table:

DISTRIBUTION OF GRADES AND GRADE POINTS

Credit Grade Point Average (CGPA) = Total Grade Points x Credits
Total Credits

One Credit is equal to 15 lectures
Suppose a student has been awarded in English the following marks in the first four semesters – 58%, 60%, 62% and 50% (These marks represent the average of marks in the Continuous Internal Assessment and End Semester Examinations), the Grades, Grade Points and Grade Point Average are calculated as shown below:

The total number of credits is 16 for English and the weighted grade points are 56. The students overall grade point average is 44/16 = 2.75. The student is eligible for the overall grade of B in English. Similar calculations will be made for all the courses.
