How to use the Cambridge CGPA calculator

Below is a visual guide for the Cambridge calculator. It shows exactly where to type course data, how grades map through UK Degree Classification (Honours), and how your running result appears — no spreadsheet required.

Cambridge calculator preview — your grades use UK Degree Classification (Honours). Results update live in the tool above.
  1. 1

    Choose Semester GPA or CGPA

    Open the Semester GPA tab for one term's modules, or CGPA to combine multiple terms. Percentage mode is for rough planning only — Cambridge degrees are classified (First, 2:1, 2:2).

  2. 2

    Add each module with credits

    Click "+ Add Course" and enter module titles from your Cambridge transcript. Use CATS/credit weight exactly as listed — weighted averages depend on credit volume, not module count alone.

  3. 3

    Select your classification band

    Pick the letter or class band shown on your result slip. The calculator maps UK honours boundaries to points for averaging — verify against your department handbook.

  4. 4

    Review your weighted result

    The bottom bar shows your semester or cumulative figure. Use it to track progress toward a First or 2:1 — official classification is confirmed on your degree transcript.

About the Cambridge CGPA Calculator

Elite UK institution where final degree class is based on weighted exam and coursework averages.

University of Cambridge assesses undergraduates through Tripos exams, coursework, and college supervisions — culminating in a UK honours degree class rather than a rolling CGPA. A First requires sustained 70%+ performance, often across multiple exam sittings. This page helps Cambridge students map weighted percentage averages to First / 2:1 / 2:2 / Third boundaries instead of misapplying South Asian CGPA formulas. Wrong scale?

What Cambridge students should know

Cambridge programmes differ sharply: Natural Sciences, Engineering, and HSPS each publish their own assessment weightings. Part IA, IB, and II marks may combine with different weights for final class. International applicants comparing Cambridge results to IIT CPI or US GPA should rely on official transcript notes, not self-invented multipliers.

How to use this calculator

  1. Collect percentage marks for each Tripos component from your Cambridge student portal or supervisor feedback.
  2. Weight modules according to your Tripos regulations — prelims and finals rarely count equally.
  3. Check your weighted average against UK class bands loaded in this calculator.
  4. For graduate applications, order an official Cambridge transcript showing degree class from the Student Registry.

Cambridge grading system

Cambridge uses UK honours classification: First (70%+), Upper Second / 2:1 (60–69%), Lower Second / 2:2 (50–59%), Third (40–49%), Fail (below 40%). College supervisions may feed into coursework marks but final class follows faculty examination conventions.

The math behind semester GPA and cumulative CGPA is the same across most universities — see our CGPA formula guide for a worked example. For broader planning tips, read the complete CGPA guide on the homepage or browse student articles on the blog.

Percentage conversion

Cambridge transcripts show marks and classification, not CGPA. Do not multiply averages by 25 — UK and Bangladesh percentage cultures differ. Use official documents for scholarships and visas.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cambridge publish a CGPA?
Cambridge records percentage marks and degree class. There is no standard cumulative GPA like American universities.
What is a 2:1 at Cambridge worth internationally?
A 2:1 is the common threshold for UK graduate programmes and many employers. Foreign evaluators apply their own conversion tables.
How are Tripos marks weighted?
Each Tripos publishes weightings in the examination regulations. Part II often counts more than Part IA — read your handbook.
Can I estimate my class before final results?
Use weighted averages of known marks — but borderline rules and exam board discretion can shift final class. This is an estimate only.
Do Cambridge colleges use different grading scales?
Degree class is set at university level using faculty exam results. Colleges support teaching but do not issue separate GPA scales.
Is this Cambridge calculator free?
Yes — no login required.
