Conversion Method
The calculator uses linear interpolation within each grade range to calculate precise GPA values. For example:
- 85% (midpoint of 80-90%) converts to 3.4 GPA (midpoint of 3.2-3.6)
- 3.0 GPA converts to 65% (as it's in the middle of the B grade range)
How to use this calculator
Follow these simple steps to convert between percentage and GPA:
- Percentage to GPA: Enter your marks percentage (0–100) in the first form and click Calculate GPA. The calculator uses the NEB grading ranges to interpolate the corresponding GPA on a 4.0 scale.
- GPA to Percentage: Enter your GPA (0–4.0) in the second form and click Calculate Percentage. The tool reverses the interpolation to estimate your percentage within the appropriate grade band.
- Interpret your result: Compare your GPA or percentage with the grade table above to understand your performance (e.g., A+, A, B).
Examples
Here are two examples showing how the conversion works:
- Example 1: A student scores 78 %. This falls in the 70–80 % range (B+), which corresponds to a GPA range of 2.8–3.2. The calculator interpolates and returns approximately 3.0 GPA.
- Example 2: A student has a GPA of 2.5. This falls in the 60–70 % grade band (B). Converting back yields about 65 %.

Our calculator follows the official grading system used by most educational institutions in Nepal. However, some universities or colleges might have slightly different grading scales, so it's always good to check with your specific institution if you need precise conversions for official purposes.
Nepal's 4.0 scale has different percentage ranges for each grade point compared to the international 4.0 scale. For example, in Nepal, 80% corresponds to 3.2 GPA (A grade), while in the international system, 80% would typically correspond to a higher GPA (around 3.7-4.0).
For multiple subjects, each subject's grade points are multiplied by the credit hours for that subject. The sum of all these products is then divided by the total credit hours to get the cumulative GPA. This calculator focuses on individual course conversions.
Yes, this calculator works for both SEE (Secondary Education Examination) and university grading in Nepal, as they generally follow the same grading system. However, some universities might have minor variations in their grading scales.
