## How it is calculated

COMSATS grades on marks, not on the class: the percentage in each course maps to a letter and fixed grade points (A 85 and above: 4, A- 80: 3.66, B+ 75: 3.33, B 71: 3, B- 68: 2.66, C+ 64: 2.33, C 61: 2, C- 58: 1.66, D+ 54: 1.3, D 50: 1, F 0 to 49: 0). Quality points for a course are grade points times credit hours; the semester **GPA** is total quality points divided by total credit hours, and **CGPA** is the same sum across every semester.

The bands and points are CUI's Grading Criteria adopted by the Academic Council at its 32nd meeting (6 October 2021), notified by the Registrar on 18 November 2021 and effective from Fall 2021 admissions. Marks are rounded to the nearest whole number first.

## Frequently asked questions

**How is GPA calculated at COMSATS?**

Each course's marks percentage is rounded and read against CUI's bands (A 85 and above: 4, A- 80: 3.66, B+ 75: 3.33, B 71: 3, B- 68: 2.66, C+ 64: 2.33, C 61: 2, C- 58: 1.66, D+ 54: 1.3, D 50: 1, F 0 to 49: 0). Grade points times credit hours gives the course's quality points; the semester GPA is total quality points divided by total credit hours.

**What marks are an A at COMSATS?**

85 percent and above is an A worth 4.00 grade points; 80 to 84 is an A- worth 3.66. The bands are absolute, so the class average does not move them.

**What is the pass mark at COMSATS?**

50 percent, a D worth 1.00 grade point. Below 50 is an F with zero points, and the credit hours still count in the GPA denominator.

**What CGPA is needed to avoid probation at CUI?**

A cumulative 2.00. Undergraduates below it are placed on probation and must lift the CGPA the following semester.
