There is no universal formula for converting your percentage to CGPA or vice versa, and it is also dependent on where you intend to use it.
If you want to apply for graduate studies (assuming you do), your alumni who have applied recently can help you. Contact them through LinkedIn. Seek assistance from your professors/college administration as well, as they may have witnessed/aided other students who have faced similar issues in the past.
Otherwise, if you're just curious about your percentage's equivalent GPA, see if your college, VTU has an established conversion formula for students who want to pursue higher education and must include an equivalent GPA in their applications.
Having a cousin who graduated from VTU and read online reviews here’s what I got to know. Firstly, you have to calculate the obtained marks divided by maximum marks obtained from 1 to 8 semesters * 100 to calculate your overall aggregate in engineering.
To calculate your final obtained marks in respective subjects. Final obtained marks will be different in many cases. For example,
Also, according to VTU, they use only 5th semester to 8th-semester 1st attempt marks for awarding the degree or rank's purpose. So, it can’t be considered as overall engineering aggregate marks.
If a company or an exam asks for overall engineering aggregate marks, one should use their final obtained marks from 1st semester to 8th-semester marks.
The trick for scoring well in VTU is simple. You should choose 5 units and go through them thoroughly. Don’t skip any topics from these units. You can keep the last unit optional. Solve the previous 5 years' questions. However, don’t rely on these papers alone.
Take all three internals and don’t take the third internal lightly. It will prepare you for the external. Try to score well in practicals. In the examination, present your answer in an effective way.
Visvesvaraya Technological University, VTU's minimum passing mark is 35%, with 40% in practical, project work, viva voce, and so on. It should be 40% after aggregation, including theory and internal marks. If a student fails only one subject, passes all exams with grace marks, or receives minimum pass marks in theory, practical, or internal and scores less after aggregation, 5 marks will be awarded.
Each candidate must receive at least 50% of the marks allotted for each subject's internal assessment, including the seminar. Candidates who receive less than 50% of the Internal Assessment marks in any subject are ineligible to take the exam in that subject.
For passing a theory subject, a candidate must obtain a minimum of 40% in the University Examination and a minimum of 50% in the aggregate including the Internal Assessment marks.
I have a few friends who completed their engineering degrees from VTU. They didn’t have a good experience at the institute. Here are some of the things that they complain about.
Going by all these factors I will say go for other institutes if you have that option.
Yes, you can apply for VTU transcripts by paying online.
Fees once paid are never refunded so it is very important to check it properly before submitting.
FCD is First Class with Distinction. Students scoring over 70% of the total marks at VTU are considered for FCD. Below is a brief highlight of VTU’s grading system.
Students scoring above 70% are rewarded with a distinction for their academic excellence.
I have a few friends who graduated from VTU and here are their insights about this.
Now, if you are opting for revaluation, you can get permission for attending the classes until you get the revaluation result by applying to the college administration. You may need to pay some extra fee for that.
If you have good aggregate and decent logical reasoning and communication skills then you can get a good job via campus placement after completing your degree.
I have a few friends from VTU, and according to their experience, very few people pass after revaluation. It completely depends on the person that will correct your answer script.
I know people who needed 5 marks to pass but didn’t get it. I also know people who needed more than 10 marks and eventually got it. So, it’s better to apply for revelation irrespective of how many marks you need.
No, the evaluation process at VTU is not that strict. You can easily score decent marks if you write the answer according to the books recommended by VTU. The answer scripts are evaluated according to the answer key prepared by the board that sets up the question paper. So, follow VTU recommended books for preparation.
