What is the CGPA Calculator?
For each course, multiply its grade point by its credits, add those products, then divide by all included credits.
The Calcwise CGPA tool is designed to give a fast answer while keeping the arithmetic visible. Enter the requested values, check the units, and the result updates in your browser. Your calculator entries are not sent to a Calcwise server.
How to use this calculator
- Enter values using the units shown beside each field. In the interactive calculator, each field also shows a plain-language example or meaning guide.
- Check that the values describe the same period or situation where relevant.
- Read the main result and the supporting figures shown beside it.
- Use the reset button to return to the example values.
Inputs used
- Total weighted grade points — Sum of grade point × course credits
- Total credits — Credits included in the total
- CGPA scale — Maximum grade-point scale
CGPA Calculator formula
The formula is shown so you can understand the relationship between the inputs instead of treating the result as a black box.
Worked example
780 weighted grade points across 100 credits gives a CGPA of 7.8 on a 10-point scale.
Your own result may differ because it uses the exact values you enter. For comparisons, keep the method and units consistent from one calculation to the next.
Important assumptions and limitations
Use credit-weighted grade points from your institution. There is no universal CGPA-to-percentage conversion, so this tool does not invent one.
Calculator outputs are estimates unless the underlying arithmetic is exact by definition. For decisions involving tax filing, lending, health, contracts or institutional grading rules, use the calculator as a first check and confirm the final decision with the relevant authoritative source.
