Difference Between SGPA and CGPA
SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average)
SGPA reflects a student's performance in a specific semester, determined by the weighted average of grades across all enrolled courses.
CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average)
CGPA measures a student's overall academic performance across multiple semesters, calculated as the weighted average of the SGPAs from all completed semesters.
Calculation
SGPA Calculation
SGPA is calculated by dividing the sum of (Credit Points × Grade Points) for all subjects in a semester by the total credits for that semester.
Example
Follow the grades in a semester:
Course 1: Grade Point = 8
Course 2: Grade Point = 9
Course 3: Grade Point = 7
SGPA = (8) + (9) + (7) / (4+3+2) = (32 + 27 + 14) / 9 = 73 / 9 = 8.11
