🎓 How to Convert CGPA to Percentage

The most common formula used by boards like CBSE is to multiply your CGPA by 9.5. This multiplier was derived by analyzing the marks of students in the 91-100 band, which average to 95. Therefore, a 10 CGPA is equivalent to 95%.

Many technical universities like VTU or Anna University use a direct multiplier of 10 (e.g., 8.0 CGPA = 80%). Always refer to the back of your official marksheet for the specific conversion rule used by your institution.
