GPA is a numerical value that represents your average academic performance across all subjects in a single semester. In SRM IST, GPA is measured on a 10-point scale, where 10 is the highest achievable score (O grade) and 0 represents a fail.
The GPA Formula
GPA = Sum(Grade Points x Credit Hours) / Total Credit Hours
This formula calculates a weighted average of your grade points, where subjects with more credit hours have a proportionally larger influence on your final GPA.
Step-by-Step GPA Calculation Example
| Subject | Credits | Grade | Grade Points | Points x Credits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Engineering Mathematics | 4 | O | 10 | 40 |
| Physics | 3 | A+ | 9 | 27 |
| Programming in C | 4 | A | 8 | 32 |
| Basic Electronics | 3 | B+ | 7 | 21 |
| Physics Lab | 2 | O | 10 | 20 |
| Total | 16 | 140 |
GPA = 140 / 16 = 8.75
