Total course units — 46
CGPA = (course unit x grade point) + (course unit x grade point) + (course unit + grade point) / total course unit
Using the results above,
CGPA = (3×4) + (3×3) + (3×4) + (4×4)+ (3×3) + (2×4) + (3×2) + (2×4) + (2×4) + (2×4) +(4×3) + (3×4) + (3×4) + (3×4) + (3×4) + (3×4) / 46
= 12+9+12+16+9+8+6+8+8+8+12+12+12+12+12+12 / 46
= 168 /46
= 3.65
CGPA = 3.65 (Out of 4.00)
