Decode Your Result
Your semester result is more than just a number. It defines your academic standing—whether you are in the elite Distinction category, a solid First Class, or need to improve. The Semester Result Calculator breaks down your SGPA using weighted credits to give you a precise picture.
How It Works
The Formula
SGPA = Σ(Credit × Grade) / Σ(Credits)
We multiply every subject grade by its credit value, sum them up, and divide by total credits.
Why It Matters
Simple averaging fails because difficult subjects (4 credits) matter more than labs (1 credit). A 'B' in a major subject hurts more than a 'C' in a minor one.
Class Divisions
| SGPA Range | Class / Division | Status |
|---|---|---|
| ≥ 8.5 | First Class with Distinction | ELITE |
| ≥ 6.5 | First Class | GOOD |
| ≥ 5.0 | Second Class | AVG |
| < 5.0 | Fail / Reappear | RISK |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the formula for SGPA?
SGPA = (Sum of [Credit × Grade Point]) / (Sum of Total Credits). It is a weighted average that values higher-credit courses more.
What SGPA is required for Distinction?
Most Indian universities (like KTU, VTU, Anna University) consider SGPA ≥ 8.5 (or sometimes 8.0) as "First Class with Distinction".
How do I know my Grade Points?
Grade Points map to letters: O=10, A+=9, A=8, B+=7, B=6, C=5, P=4. Check your university mark sheet for exact values.
Does a backlog affect SGPA calculation?
Yes. If you fail a subject (Grade F=0), the credits still count in the denominator, but you earn 0 points, drastically lowering your SGPA.
How to convert SGPA to Percentage?
A common formula is Percentage = (SGPA - 0.75) × 10 or simply SGPA × 9.5. This varies by institution.
Is SGPA the same as CGPA?
No. SGPA is for a *single semester*. CGPA is the cumulative average of *all semesters* to date.
What is First Class?
First Class usually requires an SGPA ≥ 6.5 (approx 60-65%). It indicates strong academic performance.
Can I print my result?
Yes, use the "Print Grade Card" button to generate a clean, professional PDF or paper copy of your semester result.
Why do credits matter?
Credits represent the "weight" of a subject. A 4-credit course affects your SGPA 4x more than a 1-credit lab.
Can I save my data?
No, this tool processes data locally in your browser for privacy. We do not store your grades.
