Calculation of SPI


The calculation of SPI from grades is a very simple technique.The total weight-age is given to theory i.e 70 marks for externals and 30 marks for mid-sem exams.There are practicals worth 50 marks but they are not included for SPI or CPI.
The marks are divided into some groups and grades and grade points are allocated to them as follows.
Marks
Grades
Grade points
100-85
AA
10
75-84
AB
9
65-74
BB
8
55-64
BC
7
45-54
CC
6
40-44
CD
5
35-39
DD
4
Less than 35
FF
0
  
Now every subject is given a value called as credit.
SPI is,
                SPI=∑Credit*Grade Point/∑Credits
Where SPI is Semester Performance Index.

Suppose for example we have a student having marks as:
Subject

Marks
Grade
Grade Point
Credit*Grade Point
