Understanding the UCP Grading System
The University of Central Punjab (UCP) utilizes a rigorous relative and absolute grading system to evaluate student performance. Understanding how your semester work, midterms, and final exams contribute to your final CGPA is crucial for academic success. This calculator allows you to input your raw marks against the weightage assigned by your instructor to predict your final letter grade and GPA point.
Weightage Distribution
While specific course outlines may vary, a typical semester at UCP follows a weightage distribution similar to the following:
Sessional Work (25% – 35%): This includes Quizzes, Assignments, Presentations, and Semester Projects.
Midterm Exam (25% – 30%): Usually held after the 8th week of the semester.
Final Exam (35% – 50%): Covers the comprehensive syllabus and carries the highest weight.
UCP GPA Grading Scale
Below is the standard grading scale used for calculating Grade Point Average (GPA) at UCP. Please note that some departments may use a relative grading curve, meaning the threshold for an 'A' grade could shift based on the class average.
Marks Range
Letter Grade
Grade Point
90 – 100
A
4.00
86 – 89
A-
3.67
82 – 85
B+
3.33
78 – 81
B
3.00
74 – 77
B-
2.67
70 – 73
C+
2.33
66 – 69
C
2.00
62 – 65
C-

54 – 57
D
1.00
Below 54
F

How to Use This Calculator
To get an accurate prediction of your UCP grade:
Check Course Outline: Refer to your course outline to find the exact percentage weightage for assignments, quizzes, mids, and finals.
Enter Weights: Input the percentage weight in the first column (e.g., 25 for Midterm). The total should ideally sum up to 100%.
Enter Marks: Enter the marks you obtained and the total marks for that specific component (e.g., Obtained 45 out of Total 50).
Calculate: Click the button to see your aggregate percentage and expected Grade Point.
