CBSE Class X Result 2010 – How to Calculate Percentage

Today, CBSE Board, India declared class X result for year 2010. But here is a catch – this year they changed the rating from numbers to grades. Most of the students are apparently confused how to get percentage from their GPA.

How to convert CGPA to Percentage

Here is the simple method to  convert GPA into percentage:

Percentage = 9.5 × CGPA

Example:

CGPA = 6.8

Percentage = 9.5 x CGPA = 9.5 x 6.8 = 64.60%

The percentage calculated by this manner is the overall percentage.

How to convert GP to Percentage

Here is the simple method to calculate percentage from GP:

Percentage = 9.5 x GP

Example:

GP = 06

Percentage = 9.5 x 6 = 57.6%.

The percentage calculated in this manner is the percentage in that particular subject.

 

 

SUBJECT WISE GRADE POINT:

Marks Range

Grade

Grade Point

Percentage

91-100

A1

10

95%

81-90

A2

9

85.5%

71-80

B1

8

76%

61-70

B2

7

66.5%

51-60

C1

6

57%

41-50

C2

5

47.5%

33-40

D

4

38%

21-32

E1

20-0

E2

The magic number 9.5:

The number 9.5 in the percentage calculation is not a magic number. This is derived using following formula:

Percentage = (10 x GP) - (GP/2)

Percentage = GP(10 – 1/2)

Percentage = GP(9.5) = 9.5 x GP.

 

Hope this will clear students confusion.

      A student who got 100%marks in CBSE will get A+ only in Grading system and if it is oncverted to Marks for the purpose of MBBS seat in Tamil Nadu it will become 95% only though he gets 100% marks in CBSC. Is my statement correct please clarify. Thanks

      For MBBS seat in Tamil Nadu, 12th marks are required while CBSE gives CGPA only in 10th Class. 12th std. students get results in percent.

    How do you know that someone got more than that. This is for converting grads into pct and not vice versa.

      @manisha,
      It's simple math...
      CGPA = %age / 9.5

      I assume that you know the percentage of your marks :)

    I had an additional subject(sanskrit) in class X in 2003, in which I scored slightly better in comparison to other subjects. Now, while calculating percentage, may I leave any low scoring subject while considering Sanskrit for the same.

Redirecting to new window in c#

As a developer, many time I wished to redirect user to a new URL into a new browser window. I wanted to use response.redirect at server side and open the new web page into a new window. But the way redirection works makes it impossible to open a new window from server side. The common solution to this problem is to use java script's window.open statement at client side and then fetch the new URL into the new window. To me, this is totally unacceptable while I am writing server side code. So I decided to write some code to do this. But before writing, I googled for the same. I found a good solution for the problem. I would like to give proper credit to the author, who chose not to publish his/her name. As they say a code worth one thousand words, here is the code: ResponseHelper Class: The ResponseHelper class does all the magic. It adds a client side script to the response which opens the new window. Use this class in place of response class if you want to open new window. Yo...
