about GPA caluclations

Converting percentage marks in certain systems to grade point average in the American system is somewhat complicated. In order to convert percentages to gpa, the evaluator must know the grading scale of a particular school. For instance, if the lowest passing grade is 35%, grades above 70% would be rare.

Percentage USGrade Equivalent Approximate GPA
60-100 A 4.00
55-59 B+ 3.33
50-54 B 3.00
43-49 C+ 2.33
35-42 C 2.00
0-34 F 0.00

Grades which fall at the high or low end of a bracket can be converted to GPA. For instance, a 62% can be viewed as an A- or 3.67; or a 48 or 48% might be viewed as a B- or 2.67 GPA. Since there are different scales of markings available in India , it is up to the evaluator to make the most accurate conversion of percentage to GPA.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
I have suggested several times that you should not convert your grades. Submit them with your application as provided by your Institute or College.

Tulasi is Venkatesh’s latest release on 12th of october after two hits-Laxmi and Adavari Matalaku Ardale Verule. Laxmi has a feminine name, but it is one of the few movies of Venkatesh which has an ample dose of action. In that movie, Laxmi leads a sort of double life, where he can be violent and bash up the baddies, and then be a silent and strong boss. Tulasi is again a feminine name, a strong character, a double life of sorts. The screenplay in both the movies uncovers some twists at sudden junctures
