Mumbai University
University of Mumbai
The University of Mumbai reports the semester grade performance index (SGPI) and cumulative grade performance index (CGPI) on a ten point scale. Engineering results carry the equivalence 7.1 multiplied by CGPI plus 11, while several other faculties use the deduction rule of CGPI minus 0.75 multiplied by ten.
Key rules to remember
- SGPI is the credit weighted average of grade points earned in the semester.
- The engineering equivalence 7.1 x CGPI + 11 is printed on the university transcript.
- ATKT rules permit a student to move to the next year while carrying a limited number of failed heads.
