(?? ? ??) / ???=? ?? Where Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored by the student in the ith course and n is the number of courses registered in that semester. ii) The CGPA is calculated in the same manner taking into account all the courses m, registered by student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e., upto and inclusive of Sk, where k ? 2. CGPA= ??? iii) The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points. 14.
