How to Convert CGPA to Percentage (Step-by-Step)
- Identify Your University Guidelines: Check your grade card or transcript for an official conversion formula clause.
- Apply the Standard Multiplier: If your university prescribes `CGPA × 10`, simply multiply your CGPA by 10 (e.g. 8.24 × 10 = 82.40%).
- Apply Subtraction If Required: For VTU or MAKAUT, subtract 0.75 from your CGPA first, then multiply by 10 (e.g. [8.24 - 0.75] × 10 = 74.90%).
- Determine Class Division: Match your resulting percentage against the official classification brackets (Distinction ≥ 75%, First Class ≥ 60%).
