Anyone that says that your CGPA does not matter in placements is either trying to fool you or hasn’t experienced placements at DTU. Most companies evaluate your skills and knowledge on the basis of your CGPA and the ones with low grades often remain unplaced.
Recruiters want to hire students who show promising performances and achievements in their academic profile. Their high CGPA is a reflection of the hard work they are capable of. On average, always try to maintain your CGPA above 8.25 i.e. CPI:75+. Apart from enjoying your college life, it’s crucial to make the most out of your studies and get placed in a decent company.
