Second Semester GPA = Total points\/Total Credit Units = 35.50\/16 =\u00a0<\/b>2.21875= 2.21.<\/b>
\nTherefore his\/her second semester ND1 GPA = 2.21.<\/b><\/p>\n

To calculate here cumulative grade point average (CGPA) for ND1 (first year), such student add his\/her ND1 first semester and second semester GPA and divide the result so obtain by two (2), i.e. the number of semester.<\/p>\n

Here is the working:
\nThe student\u2019s OND1 CGPA = (First Semester ND1 GPA + Second semester ND1 GPA) \/ 2 = (2.6 + 2.21) \/ 2.<\/p>\n

CGPA = 4.81 \/ 2 = 2.405 = 2.40\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The finale CGPA = (OND1 + OND2) \/ 2 = (2.40 + 3.45) \/ 2 = 5.85 \/ 2 = 2.925 = 2.92.
\nFCGPA = 2.92.<\/b><\/p>\n
