Following is the criteria to award CGPA:
a. CGPA ranges from 0 to 10 point grade
b. Grade point Table
Grade Point Division to be awarded
0.00 to 3.99 Fail division
4.00 to 4.99 Pass Division
5.00 to 5.99 Second Division
6.00 to 6.99 First Division
7.00 to 10.00 First with Distinction
Note:First with distinction will be awarded only when candidate completes the course within the stipulated period (2 years in case of day programme and single attempt without any backlog and improvement.
The following example may be considered for calculating CGPA. Example-1: Assume that student has secured 1900 out of 2600. Then the CGPA of the student will be % (1900/2600) = 73.07% (or) 7.3 CGPA, which falls under First Division with distinction. Example-2: Assume that student has secured 1700 out of 2600. Then the CGPA of the student will be % (1700/ 2600) = 65.38% (or) 6.5 CGPA, Which falls under First Division. Example-3: Assume that student has secured 1500 out of 2600. Then the CGPA of the student will be % (1500/ 2600) = 57.69% (or) 5.7 CGPA, Which falls under Second Division. Example-4: Assume that student has secured 1200 out of 2600. Then the CGPA of the student will be % (1200/ 2600) = 46.15% (or) 4.6 CGPA, Which falls under Pass Division. Example-5: Assume that student has secured 900 out of 2600. Then the CGPA of the student will be % (900/ 2600) = 34.61% (or) 3.4 CGPA, Which falls under Fail Division.
Important Note: It is important to be noted while awarding CGPA that rounding option should not be exercised. For instance, a student has secured 1817. Then the percentage of marks will be % (1817/2600) = 69.88% and CGPA will be 6.9, which falls under first class. It should be noted that 69.88 should not be rounded to 70.00% and the CGPA should not be 7.0.
As per the University norms student needs to study one subject each in the third and fourth semesters outside the MBA department.
It may be noted that beside the above specified rules and regulations all the other rules and regulations in force and applicable to semester system in Post-Graduate courses in Osmania University will be applicable as amended from time to time by the University.
