20. Grading/ Evaluation system:

The evaluation of a student will be under a Credit and Grade Point Average (GPA) system of
assessment following the revised Four-Year Bachelor (Honors) Degree Ordinance, 2009 dated 03
August 2016 of Gono Bishwabidyalay.

1) Grading Scale:

The total numerical marks obtained by a student in each course (both in theoretical as well as
practical) covering semester final examination and continuous assessment marks will be converted
into Letter grades and Grade points. A four (4.00) grading scale corresponding to 10 (ten) Letter
Grades will be followed for the evaluation of a student. The following Letter Grades and
corresponding Grade Points will be used to determine a student’s Grade Point Average (GPA):

Numerical Grade Grade Point (GP) Letter Grade

80% and above 4.00 (A+)
75% to below 80% 3.75 (A)
70% to below 75% 3.50 (A-)
65% to below 70% 3.25 (B+)
60% to below 65% 3.00 (B)
55% to below 60% 2.75 (B-)
50% to below 55% 2.50 (C+)
45% to below 50% 2.25 (C)
40% to below 45% 2.00 (D)
Less than 40% 0.00 (F)

2) Grades:

i. The grades with numerical values are described as follows:

Grades Description
A+ Exceptional performance/excellent
A Outstanding performance
A- Brilliant performance
B+ Very good performance; most of the course objectives achieved; objectives
met in a consistently through manner.
B Good performance
B- Above average
C+ Average, at least majority of the course objectives achieved; objectives met
satisfactorily.
C Below average performance; moderately course objectives achieved.
D Minimally acceptable performance; less than the majority but more than the
minimum required course objectives achieved; objectives achieved at a
minimally acceptable level.
F Unacceptable performance; minimum required course objectives not met;
objectives not met minimally acceptable level; no credit earned.
Note: A course in which a student has obtained “D” or a higher grade will be
counted as credits earned by him/her. Any course in which a student has
obtained “F” grade will not be counted towards him/her earned credit.

ii. Continuous Assessment:

The minimum number of tutorials, class test, assignment/problem session spread over the
academic semester for each course will be as prescribed below:
for a 4-credit theoretical/practical/field work course - 4 written/2 practical tests
for a 3-credit theoretical/practical/field work course - 3 written/2 practical tests
for a 2-credit theoretical/practical/field work course - 2 written/1 practical tests
149
 for a 1-credit theoretical/practical/field work course - 1 written/1 practical test

Thirty percent (30%) of marks of theoretical course is allocated for continuous assessment i.e.
class participation/attendance, quizzes/assignment/class test, and midterm. The remaining
(70%) of the marks is allotted to semester Final Examination. The distribution of theory
marks for a given course is as follows:

Class participation/attendance 10%

Class Test/tutorial 10%
Mid term 10%
Semester Final 70%
Total 100%

iii. Marks for class attendance:

Present of class attendance Marks

95% and above 10
90% to 94% 9
85% to 89% 8
80% to 84% 7
75% to 79% 6
70% to 74% 5
Less than 70% 0

Students having attendance less than 70% in any of the courses is not allowed to the semester
final examination, he/she has to repeat the course in the next semester with fresh enrollment
as directed in the university examination policy.

iv. Grade Point Average (GPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):

a) Calculation of Grade Point Average (GPA):

Grade Point Average (GPA) is the weighted average of the grade points obtained by the
students in all the course in the examination of the semester. For example, if a student
passes/completes, five courses in a semester having credits C1, C2, C3, C4, and C5 and his
grade points in these courses are G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5 respectively then

∑ 𝐶𝑖 𝐺
𝐺𝑃𝐴 = ∑ 𝐶𝑖
, where i = 1 to 5.

For example, if a student takes 6 courses in one semester and obtains the following grades:
Course Credits Letter Grades Grade Points
01 4 A+ 4.00
02 4 C+ 2.50
03 4 A- 3.50
04 2 B- 2.75
05 2 B 3.00
06 2 F 0.00

Then the GPA for the semester, calculated to two digits after decimal point will be as:

∑ 𝐶𝑖 𝐺 4(4.00) + 4(2.50) + 4(3.50) + 2(2.75) + 2(3.00) + 2(0)

GPA = = = 2.86
∑ 𝐶𝑖 (4 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 2)

151
 b) Calculation of Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):

Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the weighted average of the GPA secured over
the total number of semesters for a course of studies. For example:

Semester GPA Credit

1st 4.00 20
2nd 3.00 30
3rd 3.50 25
4th 3.00 20

Hence, the calculated CGPA at the 4th semester will be as:

(20 × 4) + (30 × 3) + (25 × 3.5) + 20 × 3)

CGPA = = 3.34
20 + 30 + 25 + 20

3) Course Withdrawal: Not Applicable.

4) Incomplete Courses: If any student fails to obtain 40% marks or obtains F grade or abstains
from the examination in any course of a semester that course is incomplete course. He/she has to
pass the incomplete course in the Supplementary examinations, take place between the two
Semester Final Examinations. Such students will get two chances for pass the course.

5) Retake: If any students have one/more incomplete courses, he/she will be allowed to repeat the
incomplete course(s) after readmission. The student will have to pay prescribed fees for the
Semester and a Readmission fee as prescribed by the University. After readmission the student
has to attend the classes regularly and must obtain 70% attendance from the date of readmission.
Marks earned earlier in Midterm/Assessment Examination of such students will be retained.
Such Students will be required to retake Semester Final Examination in the failed and/or
incomplete course(s).

152
6) Grade Improvement or Improvement of Grade:

a) If a student obtains a Grade equal to or lower than “B” in a course, he/she will be
allowed to repeat the course only once during the following Supplementary
Examination but he/she will not be eligible to get a Grade better than B+ in such a
course.

b) If a student fails to improve his/her Grade then his/her earlier Grade will be obtained.

c) If a student likes to improve the Grade earned in a course of 4 th year (8th semester),
he/she must apply for such improvement examination before the issuance of transcript.
Improvement examination shall not be allowed once the degree is awarded.

7) Irregular Student/Dropout: A student who appears at the 8th Semester Final examination but
fails to secure a minimum GPA of 2.00 will cease to be a regular student of the university. Such
a student will however be allowed to sit for the Examination in the following year as an Irregular
candidate subject to the recommendation by the Head of the respective Department duly
approved by the Dean of the Faculty. The student has to bear the fees prescribed by the
university before he/she can sit for the examination. Marks that have been obtained by the
student in Tutorial/Test/Class Attendance and other others will be duly credited to the results of
the student. If any students fail to complete the degree within six years (12th semester) of
enrollment, he/she will be dropout from the university.
