Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the standard formula to convert percentage to CGPA?
The standard formula is: CGPA = Percentage ÷ Conversion Factor. For most Indian universities including CBSE, the conversion factor is 9.5. So, CGPA = Percentage ÷ 9.5. However, some institutions may use different factors like 10.
How accurate is the percentage to CGPA conversion?
The accuracy depends on the conversion factor used by your institution. Our calculator provides a close approximation based on standard conversion factors, but for official purposes, always refer to your institution's specific guidelines.
What percentage is equivalent to a 9.0 CGPA?
Using the standard conversion factor of 9.5, a 9.0 CGPA is equivalent to 85.5% (9.0 × 9.5 = 85.5%). If your institution uses a different conversion factor, the percentage equivalent may vary.
What is the maximum CGPA in the 10-point scale?
In the 10-point scale, the maximum CGPA is 10.0, which typically corresponds to a percentage of 95% or higher when using the standard conversion factor of 9.5. Some institutions may consider it equivalent to 100% if they use a conversion factor of 10.
Can I get a CGPA higher than 10.0?
No, in the standard 10-point grading system, 10.0 is the maximum CGPA possible. Even if your percentage is 100%, your CGPA would be capped at 10.0. This is because the CGPA scale is designed to have a maximum value of 10.0.
How do I convert my percentage to CGPA if my institution uses a 4-point scale?
For a 4-point scale, you would typically use the formula: CGPA = (Percentage ÷ 100) × 4. For example, if your percentage is 85%, your CGPA on a 4-point scale would be (85 ÷ 100) × 4 = 3.4. However, some institutions may have specific conversion tables, so it's best to check with your institution.
What percentage is required to get a first-class degree?
In most Indian universities, a percentage of 60% or above (equivalent to a CGPA of about 6.3 on a 10-point scale with a 9.5 conversion factor) is considered first class. However, this can vary by institution and country. Some prestigious institutions may require 70% or higher for a first-class degree.
