Work out a single semester's GPA using Shanghai University's official grade points.
Your semester GPA covers one term. Your CGPA accumulates every term you have completed. A single strong semester lifts your CGPA only in proportion to its share of your total credits, which is exactly why recovering from a weak first year gets harder the further you go.
If you want to see how a planned semester moves your cumulative figure, use the CGPA calculator and enter your prior record.
