SJGC (A), Kurnool 25
Computation of CGPA
Step – 1: Grade Points (GPs) for the subjects in Part – I and III separately
Step – 2: Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) for 3 parts separately
Step – 3: Over all Percentage of Marks (OPM) for Part –I & III separately
Step – 4: CGPA at the end of the Course.
SJGC (A), Kurnool 26
Step-1: Computation of GPs
MARKS OBTAINED GRADE POINTS (GP)
(GP= Total Marks/10)
Ex: English Paper -I
CIA - 21
ESE- 68
Total: 89 GP = 8.9

Step 2: Computation of SGPA for the Subjects in Part-I
Subject Marks Grade Point(Marks/10)
Credits GP X Credits
English 78 7.8 02 15.6Telugu / Hindi 85 8.5 02 17.0
Total Credits=

∑ (GPXCredits)= 32.6SGPA = ∑ (GPXCredits)/ Total credits = 32.6/4 = 8.15 (for 1st semester)Similarly SGPAs are calculated for the remaining 3 sems
