What is a Percentage to GPA Converter?
A Percentage to GPA Converter is a tool that helps students convert their marks in percentage form (e.g., 75%) into Grade Point Average (GPA) according to the Pakistani grading system.
Why do I need to convert percentage into GPA?
Many universities in Pakistan and abroad require GPA instead of raw percentages for admission, scholarships, or transcript evaluations. Converting ensures consistency with international grading standards.
What is the GPA scale used in Pakistan?
Most Pakistani universities follow a 4.0 GPA scale. Some institutions, however, may follow different variations (like 5.0 scale in certain cases), so it’s important to check your university’s grading policy.
How do HEC and Pakistani universities calculate GPA from percentages?
According to the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan conversion table:
85% and above = 4.0 GPA (A grade)
80 – 84% = 3.7 GPA (A-)
75 – 79% = 3.3 GPA (B+)
70 – 74% = 3.0 GPA (B)
65 – 69% = 2.7 GPA (B-)
60 – 64% = 2.3 GPA (C+)
55 – 59% = 2.0 GPA (C)
50 – 54% = 1.7 GPA (C-)
Below 50% = Fail (0.0 GPA)
How is CGPA different from GPA?
GPA = Grade Point Average of a single semester.
CGPA = Cumulative Grade Point Average, calculated across all semesters.
The percentage-to-GPA converter usually applies to one semester/subject, while CGPA is the overall performance.
