Question Description
Hello, I’m from Nepal. I’ve got 79% in BBS level. In countries like Nepal, India, Pakistan etc, as much I know there isn’t any grading system like GPA but I came to know our percentage score can be converted into GPA. So can somebody please give me the GPA conversion table? How much will my 79% be when converted to GPA? Please help with my percentage to GPA score conversion. If possible also give percent to GPA conversion table for several percent ranges.

Thanks in advance for helping me convert my percentage to GPA conversion with a conversion chart.

Many people have many thoughts about converting percentage scores to GPA scores. Most say for 4 GPA score, the equivalent percentage will be 100% => 4.0 GPA, 75% => 3.0, 50% => 2.0, and 25% => 1.0. But I don’t think such GPA conversion is a correct or the real one.

Here is the GPA conversion system which I found most trustworthy and genuine. It is published by Cascadia Community College in USA. Here is the conversion pattern:

0%-59% => 0 GPA
60% => 0.7 GPA
61% => 0.8 GPA
62% => 0.8 GPA
63% => 0.9 GPA
64% => 1.0 GPA
65% => 1.0 GPA
66% => 1.1 GPA
67% => 1.2 GPA
68% => 1.3 GPA
69% => 1.4 GPA
70% => 1.5 GPA
71% => 1.6 GPA
72% => 1.7 GPA
73% => 1.8 GPA
74% => 1.9 GPA
75% => 2.0 GPA
76% => 2.1 GPA
77% => 2.2 GPA
78% => 2.3 GPA
79% => 2.4 GPA
80% => 2.5 GPA
81% => 2.7 GPA
82% => 2.8 GPA
83% => 2.9 GPA
84% => 3.0 GPA
85% => 3.0 GPA
86% => 3.1 GPA
87% => 3.2 GPA
88% => 3.3 GPA
89% => 3.4 GPA
90% => 3.5 GPA
91% => 3.5 GPA
92% => 3.6 GPA
93% => 3.7 GPA
94% => 3.8 GPA
95% => 3.9 GPA
96% => 3.9 GPA
97% => 4.0 GPA
98% => 4.0 GPA
99% => 4.0 GPA
100% => 4.0 GPA

I hope this conversion pattern will help Indian, Nepali, Pakistani and other students who belong to country where scoring is done on percentage of total score.
