Hi Pallavi & Sanketh,
Just wanted to ask you'll regarding the CPGA. There are campus based scholarships of upto 3 lac based on certain conditions. How many people normally get these scholarships? How are these CPGA's calculated?
i love reply to this one coz i did it for 4 yrs in my engg :-)
here it goes will first tell u in general and then explain further with details
Now every subject has two componenets of evaluation
1. External
2. Internal
The internals wud include assignements, projects, presenatations, class tests...etc...they are awarded for a max marks of 50. please note that what u score in internals is not weighted down. your score out of 50 gets added as it is. Let this score be X
now ur externals are basically the end semester exams that you have. each subject is a 100 marks paper. with 30 marks for objective type and 70 for subjective.
what u score out of 100 is weighted down to get a score out of 50. let this score after being weighted down be Y
so your total score for any subject will be X+Y
now come to the subjects consider this
marketing mgmt-MM- (3)
ops mgmt-OM-(3)
finan mgmt-FM-(3)
org behav-OB-(3)
IT(2)
four out of the above 5 subjects have a grade point of 3. ie their weightage is 3. while IT has 2 grade points. will show u the relevance of grade points below.
generally the grade u get in each subject will follow a Sine curve. meaning very few A, fewer B, Mostly C, fewer D and very few E. each grade carries the following scores
A-10, B-8, C-6, D-4, E-2.
suppose u get the following grade in the subjects MM-A, OM-B, FM-A, OB-C, IT-B then your GPA will be
Sum of {(grade point of each sub)*(Grade score in each subject)}/ total grade points
so in this case it become
=9
now ur cgpa is cumulative. ie it will be considered in the same way addin and taking a cumulative of ur GPA's in each semester.
hope that explains....
scholarship is awarded to 25% of the total number of students ....i think that was the figure quoted for us. u shud find the same in ur books. chekc them..and how many exactly wud depend on how many students u have in ur batch
