There is no conversion formula to convert CGPA into a percentage. for a general purpose, you can go with the following two methods.

If your Marking system is Absolute

formula = CGPA * 10.5 or CGPA * 11

recommended = CGPA * 10.5

If your Marking system is relative

formula = CGPA * 9.5 or CGPA * 10

recommended = CGPA * 10

I asked NITW dean he gave a later here is a copy of a later

Thanks

The Following was announced by the Academic Section with effect from July 2020

The Formula to convert CGPA to Percentage for NIT Warangal is

Percentage = ( CGPA - 0.5)*10.

Attaching the Official Document for the same.

Two years ago, it used to be Percentage = (CGPA*10) - 5.
The Training and Placement Section considers it to be
Percentage = (CGPA*10). This is to facilitate People with GPA of 6 to apply for companies that have a cutoff of 60%. The older formula would only allow people who have a GPA greater than 6.5. So, this conversion is still used by T&P. The office will issue a document stating the same on request for all recruitment purposes.
The people in Admin and academic section did not have a consensus about the conversion until the Dean Academic decided to do this -

Hopefully this makes every thing clear.

we don't have any conversion of cgpa to percentage

You can see the following document

As of now there is no CGPA to percentage conversion formula at NIT Warangal.

Whereever its needed you can show/upload this document.

Hey now its is just : CGPA * 10 = Your equivalent Grade Formula

10X system is used since many years to convert your CGPA to equivalent percentage where X is your CGPA. Also official conformation has been given to this conversion rule and since then no changes have been made in this rule.

So you can simply multiply your CGPA by 10 to get the equivalent percentage.

For past few days, I have been worried sick as I couldn’t find CGPA-to-Percentage formula stated for NIT, Nagpur. Or at least for all the NITs in common. All the answers I found googling on the internet was half a decade old, and I think since 2017, VNIT stopped issuing CGPA-to-Percentage conversion formula. I absolutely needed this formula and without which I was stuck and couldn’t prove my percentage.
And just now, I finally found it.

The above screenshot is from SENATE MEETING of VNIT held in DECEMBER 2021. They finally solved this problem just recently, in december 2021 (for VNIT).

pdf link: VNIT_ Grade Conversion Certificate.pdf
This is just a soft copy I received a long time ago.

If you want to submit a copy somewhere, I recommend you to contact VNIT Administration, they will provide you with one.

Good luck..

Simply, Multiply by 10. Here is the proof, take a printout and submit it to the concerned persons.

If you want to convert CGPA to percentage in NITK multiply the CGPA with 10

This is a really interesting question owing to it’s huge impact on admission criteria of different exams like CAT and others.

So CAT does have a rule for conversion of GPA to Percentage which states like this.

“If any board/University/institution confirms that there is no scheme for converting CGPA into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by dividing the candidate's CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA, and multiplying the result with 100”

And till this year, our institution NIT Rourkela was making it more difficult for students by having a rather more complicated and confusing rule for percentage conversion.

http://www.nitrkl.ac.in/IntraWeb/Miscellaneous/Document/2013/131708310545.pdf

So here first the rule states, our institute have no rule for conversion. But again states that, organizations may use their own formula or the below formula.

And since CAT states, if your University does not have a rule for conversion, it will be using, the rule where basically it will be multiplied by 100 and divided by maximum GPA.

So basically our students were in soup thinking whether to calculate thinking our institute have a rule and do 10*CGPA -5 or assuming our institute does not have a rule and do 10*CGPA

So this might not be a big change for people having a CGPA above a particular cutoff. But for people on the border line it was a big factor.

But fortunately from this year April, they have issued a new circular with the new rule for conversion where it has been made pretty clear that, institute does not have any rule.

The link to the new circular https://nitrkl.ac.in/websiteNew/docs/Announcement/11042017103709413.pdf

The file was in pdf form so i took it's screenshot and posting that.

I had downloaded it from college’s official website in 2014 i think, don't know whether it's still available there or not. It states that cgpa to grade confersion factor is 10

There is no conversion formula for CGPA to Percentage (at least none from the COE,MANIT).

However you can multiply your CGPA with 10 in order to obtain your percentage.

Well, buddy, NIT Warangal is one of the under top five college among all the NIT colleges of India.Even it is above in ranking from some of new IIT collleges as well.

National Institute of Technology, Warangal (Deemed University) , formerly known as Regional Engineering College, was established in 1959.

Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru laid the foundation stone for this institute on October 10, 1959, the first in the chain of 30 NITs (formerly known as RECs) in the country.

The Institute is well known for its dedicated faculty, staff and the state-of-the art infrastructure conducive to a healthy academic environment.The Institute is constantly striving to achieve higher levels of technical excellence. Evolving a socially relevant and yet internationally acceptable curriculum, implementing innovative and effective teaching methodologies and focusing on the wholesome development of the students are our concerns. Thanks to UNESCO and UK assistance in the past, many developmental activities were undertaken.The World Bank Assistance under Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQIP during 2004-09) had been a timely help in the overall development of the Institute.

Its CGPA x 10 for everyone, except for 2010 passed student for them its

CGPA x 9.25.

A part of certificate from NIT Trichy.

There is Rumor or Truth I Don’t know but I realize that in NITW each and Every Branch (Specially CSE branch) Average CGPA keep 69% or 6.9.

I have Complete MCA from NITW. when I was in First year my senior told me department keep CGPA 69% for all Courses and I found that they was right.

Example:- In 5th semester I was topper in particular subject even second position student was 10 marks behind me but I got C grade in that subject when I ask to my faculty what s this, they told me your CGPA is less in previous semester so I have to cut your marks and put you in C grade categories. Cause your Course(MCA) average is going to above 69%.

It's like you are in the average zone.

But you can do better coz it's first year and it is easier to score during 1st and 2nd sem.

Fix your target for the next sem and now you know well about the grading system here so plan your studies accordingly.

Focus more on the 4 credit subjects coz these can make drastic changes in your sgpa. Practice M-2 from BS Grewal. If you have physics cycle in 2nd sem then focus more on pscp and English will be the scoring subject, and if you have chemistry cycle then all subjects will be of same level and mostly related to the basics of your +2 intermediate.

Never make your sgpa to fall below 7.5 coz few companies have the criteria like they want above 7.5 SGPA in all the semesters. Try to maintain a good cgpa:p

All THE BEST!

Follow the professors in each class. Sometimes they skip some topics which can be analysed by you. That's not so tough.

Don't go to classes just for attendance please. You'll know the value of subject after you complete all the exams and see your grade. Look for the correct academic books (recommended by professors). Have a glance at each topic on the taught day itself. You'll have two minor exams for 20 marks, a mid semester for 30 marks and end semester for 50 marks. Minors can be pretty scoring cause it contains only one or two chapters. These exams have straight questions where you can't manage to write but directly hit the point. So you'll have to be keen on all topics of those few chapters. Coming to mid examination of 30 marks you'll enter the subjective mode. You must go deep into main topics. Make use of Google more than books. Whatever style it's described.. content is always same.

Now coming to end of semester.. before these exams you'll get preparation holidays which make you too much lazy. Please don't do that. Split those days according to the subjects of interest. End exams will be of 50 marks where you have to struggle a lot to write the answers. Believe me, sometimes you cry while thinking of answers.

You must get 17.5 out of 50 and also 35 out of 100 (complete subject). If you can't do either of them you'll have a backlog in your account.

Please don't follow other's strategies. Don't neglect any topic, it may drown you. And don't misuse holidays or neglect assignments and attendance too.

All the best : )

Yes there is a chance.

You will be asked to opt for branch change.You have to give preferences to branches.

Based on the applications received, they will sort it in descending order of CGPA at the end of 2nd Semester(So there is good competetion).Once the allotment is completed based on the possible provisions, authorities will notify it through institution website.

Better SGPA like 8.6 and above in 1st semester will help more.So, target A grade in all subjects. If not possible,then Ex grade in 1 or 2 subjects, one B grade in subject which you feel difficult and remaining A grades.

Chemistry cycle in 1st semster an advantage here.(Students will be devided into aproximately 12 sections like A,BC,D,E,..1st 6 sections were given Chemistry cycle,where you will study chemistry as one subject in 1st semster,2nd semster is physics cycle. For the other 6 sections this is just opposite) It will increase your confidence amid the new college environment and tensions.

I got branch sliding from metallurgy to Civil Engineering.

All the best.

It is not tough. But you have to keep your performance consistent through all the semesters. Every subject is important to get the 9 CGPA.

As the grading system is relative, it depends on your performance with respect to your fellow students. You have to look into the previous papers. Sometimes, it may depend on faculty and student relationship. You have to be ahead of your fellow students in learning and keep self-motivated.

Ultimate goal should be learning and applying the subject.

Getting CGPA is quite easy just if we read previous years papers and important topics. But, this may not help in the future even it looks good at present.

The ranks which were helped in getting the admission does not matter. You should not understimate your self by looking the admission ranks.

Another major factor is our surroundings like mobiles, laptops and friends will have influence over our performance.

Dream and excite about the wonderful future to have self-motivation.

I think you are talking about this baby right here.

I belong to the 2k9–2k13 batch. Back then they had this system. So they take away 0.5 from your CGPA and then multiply it by hundred to convert it to your corresponding marks in percentage.

The same is followed for SGPA as well.

Check out the last two lines in the picture.

Hope this was helpful :)

Okay. Interesting question. Seriously it took me a semester to actually understand how it works. I still get asked this a lot of times by first year juniors. Finally I'll ask them to refer this.

You have usually 6 subjects per semester. This may vary dept to dept and semester to semester. Now there is relative grading which is being followed here. That means you're evaluated against your batchmates. Even if you've got 5 out of 25 in a test but are the highest in class, you're all set to be graded perfect in that particular subject.

We have this structure CT1(20) | CT2(20) | ASSIGNMENT(10) | END SEM (50) = 100 for each subject.

CT means cycle test. It is an hour test comprising of usually 2 chapters. End sem is a 3 hour test and have full syllabus in it. Your overall syllabus will be in terms of 5 chapters per semester for each subject. They cluster it that way. Usually, they're asked like 2 chapters, next 2 chapters, full syllabus.

There is grading SABCDE.. F(fail) which is aactually representing 10 9 8 7 6 5 .. 0. There are a fixed number of total credits awarded per semester. Usually betwen 20 and 30. You'll have a few 4 credit, 3 credit, 2 credit and sometimes even 1 credit courses. This I’ve is observed is based on the application part of that course or value in industry.

Lets understand it course wise.

Lets say I'm talking about heat treatment course. It was a 4 credit course for us. If i guess S that mean 4*S = 4*10 = 40. Basically whatever grade you get in your batch that value associated with that grade gets multiplied by the credit it has. Had I got E grade, it could have contributed 4*E = 4*5 = 20. Lets call this end value as S(i) for each course.

You'll have S(1), S(2), S(3),…S(6) or S(7) depending on number of subjects. Have a Sigma of all these scores of courses.

TOTAL Score = SIGMA S(i)

; Sigma means summation

Now you’re almost done. Divide this total score value by the total number of credits that semester.

Total credit = 4+3+3+2+3+3 = 18 (just for example)

SGPA = 【 Total Score/Total credits 】

SGPA is your semester wise GPA. CGPA stands for cumulative GPA. CGPA keeps on getting updated with your SGPAs of the semesters till end of 8th semester. It's a weighted average kind of stuff.

CGPA = Sigma 【SGPA(i)*Total credits(i) 】/Sigma【Total credits(i)】

Ideally there is a bell curve distribution in grades among the students. Extreme grades (S and E) are awarded to students less in numbers compared to ( A < B ~ C > D ). This is all ideal scenario. Because of the autonomous power to the professors, you can see different curve structure instead of bell curve with one peak.

Coming to getting grades in eacg course ?

As it's relative so usually top 10% of the class gets S in a particular course and 20% A 30% B .. like that. But this meed not to be true in all cases. It's ALL upto professor. He can keep a threshold value of Lets say 85 out of 100 to get S. Whoever crossing 85 gets S irrespective of how many people do that. If none of us touch that bar, no S grades. He might keep anything strange as per his wish.

I think this must have given you some clarity on how it works. There are a few changes for the recent batch of 2020 in terms of having exams. System is somewhat flexible and they don't need to have their all CTs together. We have 2 CTs om one day making our Cycle Tests over in 3 days usually. But for junior batch it's upto prof when does he want to conduct the CT for his course.

TIP :- in case you don’t have much time for preparation and you're aiming for good SGPA at the end. Go priority wise. ‘S’ in a course of more credit will help you add more points to your SGPA compared to when you get same ‘S’ in a low credit course. Because 4*S gives 40 and 3*S gives 30. So it makes sense to work your hours accordingly. Learn to allocate time required for each course and you'll get the best out of whatever hours you're putting into.

All the best. Incase of any clarification needed, ping me. Feel free to disturb if you have any other doubt on any other academic issue.
