VTU Grading System (CBCS)
How Does the VTU SGPA Calculator Work?
The calculator multiplies the credit assigned to each subject by the grade points earned in that subject. It then adds all the weighted grade points together and divides the total by the total number of credits to calculate your Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA).
You simply enter the credits for each subject, select the corresponding grade, and the calculator automatically performs the calculation according to the VTU CBCS grading system.
Worked Example
| Subject | Credits | Grade | Grade Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 4 | A+ | 36 |
| Programming | 4 | O | 40 |
| Physics | 3 | A | 24 |
| Total | 11 | — | 100 |
SGPA = 100 ÷ 11 = 9.09
