Convert your percentage into a 4.0-scale GPA and letter grade.
🛠️ Free tool by the NayaPakistan team · Updated September 2026
Most Pakistani universities grade on a 4.0 GPA scale, but the percentage bands behind each grade are set by each institution. This tool maps your percentage to the most commonly used bands — roughly 85%+ for an A (4.0), the 70s for the B range, and below 50% a fail — as a quick guide, and shows the matching letter grade.
Your CGPA (cumulative GPA) is the credit-hour-weighted average of every semester's GPA, not a simple average of percentages. Because the exact conversion differs between HEC guidance, individual universities and absolute-versus-relative (curved) grading, always confirm the official scale with your department before quoting a GPA on an application.
Map your percentage to the grade bands: about 85%+ is 4.0 (A), the 70s fall in the B range, and below 50% is a fail. This tool applies common Pakistani university bands — confirm your own institution's exact scale.
GPA is your grade average for one semester; CGPA is the cumulative, credit-hour-weighted average across all semesters completed so far.
No. HEC gives a recommended scale, but universities set their own bands and some use relative (curved) grading, so the same percentage can map to different GPAs at different institutions.
Multiply each semester's GPA by its credit hours, add those up, and divide by the total credit hours. Semesters with more credits count more toward your CGPA.
