How to Convert Percentage to CGPA in Pakistan?
Short answer: HEC estimate: CGPA equals percentage divided by 25. Example: 80 percent gives 3.20 CGPA. This is an estimate. The official method maps percentage to a letter grade with your university table, then to grade points, then weights by credit hours. Do not use the India 9.5 divisor for Pakistan. That divisor belongs to the 10 point scale.
Formula
GPA equals total quality points divided by total credit hours. CGPA equals total quality points across all semesters divided by total credit hours. Quality points for a course equal grade points times credit hours.
Worked example
| Course | Credit hours | Grade | Grade points | Quality points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 3 | A (4.00) | 4.00 | 12.00 |
| Physics | 3 | B+ (3.33) | 3.33 | 9.99 |
| English | 2 | A- (3.67) | 3.67 | 7.34 |
| Lab | 1 | B (3.00) | 3.00 | 3.00 |
| Total | 9 | 32.33 |
GPA equals 32.33 divided by 9, which is 3.59.
