The UET CGPA Calculator is tailored for students of the University of Engineering and Technology (UET). Whether you attends UET Lahore, UET Taxila, or any satellite campus (KSK, Faisalabad, Narowal), accurate GPA calculation is essential for academic planning.
UET uses a mix of absolute (for labs) and relative (for theory) grading, but the final letter grades correspond to specific grade points. This calculator uses the precise UET scale where A- is 3.67 and C- is 1.7, ensuring your result matches your official transcript.
How to Calculate UET CGPA
1. Theory Courses (Relative)
For outcomes based on Relative Grading, select your final Letter Grade (e.g., A, B+) directly from the dropdown. The point value is standard (e.g., B+ = 3.33).
2. Lab Courses (Absolute)
Labs often follow Absolute Grading. Simply input your obtained marks grade (e.g., A if ≥85%) based on the instructor's scale.
3. Credit Hours
Enter the exact credit hours. Theory is usually 2, 3, or 4 credits. Labs are typically 1 credit.
UET Grading Scale (Official)
The following table represents the standard grade points used across UET campuses:
| Letter Grade | Grade Points | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| A+ / A | 4.00 | Outstanding |
| A- | 3.67 | Excellent |
| B+ | 3.33 | Very Good |
| B | 3.00 | Good |
| B- | 2.67 | Average |
| C+ | 2.33 | Satisfactory |
| C | 2.00 | Pass |
| C- | 1.70 | Low Pass |
| D | 1.00 | Marginal Pass |
| F | 0.00 | Fail |
Calculation Example
Example of SGPA calculation for an Engineering student:
- Applied Physics (3 Credits): Grade B+ (3.33) → 3 × 3.33 = 9.99 points
- Calculus (3 Credits): Grade A (4.00) → 3 × 4.00 = 12.00 points
- Workshop Practice (1 Credit): Grade A- (3.67) → 1 × 3.67 = 3.67 points
- Programming (4 Credits): Grade B (3.00) → 4 × 3.00 = 12.00 points
Total Credits: 11
Total Points: 37.66
SGPA = 37.66 / 11 = 3.42
UET Grading System & Policies
Relative Grading
Theory Courses: Grades are assigned based on the class average (Mean) and Standard Deviation.
Absolute Grading: Often used for Lab/Practical courses.
Passing & Probation
Pass: minimum 50% normalized marks (D Grade).
Probation: If CGPA < 2.00. Dropped if 2 consecutive probations.
Degree: Must have CGPA ≥ 2.00 to graduate.
Frequently Asked Questions (UET)
Grading & Formulas
How do I convert UET CGPA to Percentage?
The most common formula used for UET is Percentage = CGPA × 25. For example, a 3.0 CGPA equals 75%. However, for official purposes (like foreign admission), apply for a "CGPA to Percentage Equivalence Certificate" from the Controller of Examinations.
How is the Relative Grading calculated?
In relative grading, your raw marks are normalized. Use the formula: Standardized Mark = Mean + Z × (Std. Dev). The instructor sets a threshold, and grades (A to F) are distributed across the bell curve.
Probation, Repeating & Honors
When is a student placed on Probation?
If your CGPA falls below 2.00 at the end of any semester, you are placed on probation. You must raise it to 2.00 or above in the next semester. Failing to do so for two consecutive semesters leads to separation (dismissal).
What is the difference between Warning and Probation?
Warning: If your SGPA is < 2.00 but CGPA is ≥ 2.00.
Probation: If your **CGPA** drops below 2.00. Consecutive
probations lead to dismissal.
Does a 'W' grade affect my CGPA?
No, a 'W' (Withdrawn) grade does not affect your CGPA calculation. It simply appears on your transcript to show the course was dropped within the allowed period.
Which courses can I repeat?
You can repeat a course in which you received a 'C-' grade or lower. You cannot repeat a course with a 'C' grade or better to improve your GPA.
How to get Honors on the degree?
To graduate "With Honors", you generally need a CGPA of 3.70 or above and must not have failed any course throughout your degree program.
General Questions
What are Type-A and Type-B courses?
UET classifies courses into Type-A (Theory) which usually follow Relative Grading, and Type-B (Lab/Practical) which often follow Absolute Grading.
