How is CGPA calculated in KIIT University?

KIIT University has a 10-point grading system for calculating CGPA. For this, you need to take the sum of the products of the credit weightage of each course and the grade point obtained in that course, divided by the sum of the credit weightage of all the courses. 

Consider the following example, if you have taken 5 courses in a semester with the given  grade points and credit weightage:

Now, the sum of the products of the credit weightage of each course and the grade point is 116 while the sum of credit weightages is 14. To get the CGPA, you need to divide the former with the latter.

CGPA =116/14=8.28

To calculate CGPA for the entire program,

• Take the sum of the product of credit weightage and grade points obtained in all semesters
• Divide the above by the total credit weightage of all the courses in the program.

The relative grading system compares the grades of the students to the overall performance of the class.
