NU Second Year Biochemistry And Molecular Biology GPA Calculator — BSc Honours (2013-2014)

This is the Second Year calculator for Biochemistry And Molecular Biology under the BSc Honours (2013-2014) syllabus at National University Bangladesh. It covers 9 courses worth 28 credit hours from a syllabus list of 10 rows worth 28 credits — 22% of the 128 credits that make up the full Biochemistry And Molecular Biology programme. It ranks 2 of 4 in this department by credit load, and averages 2.8 credits per course. The calculator below keeps only the credit-bearing requirement in the GPA and leaves non-credit rows out of the calculation.

Non-credit or reference-only rows are excluded before GPA calculation. Any practical or lab paper that remains in the required set is still graded separately and weighted by its own credits. Enter a grade for each course below and the Yearly GPA updates as you go; switch to another year tab to see how this year's 28 credits weigh into your overall CGPA.

Biochemistry And Molecular Biology Second Year at a Glance — 2013-2014

Across the full Biochemistry And Molecular Biology programme (2013-2014), the 4 academic years carry 128 credits in total after this year’s requirement is applied. Here is how the credit load is distributed — the year you are on is highlighted with its required, not fully listed, load:

Because NU's GPA is credit-weighted, the papers below have the largest single effect on your Second Year result in Biochemistry And Molecular Biology. An A+ in Enzymes & Bioenergetics is worth more to this year's GPA than an A+ in a 1-credit paper:

• 222901Enzymes & Bioenergetics4 credits
• 222905Molecular Biology-I4 credits
• 222908Biochemistry Practical4 credits

Step-by-Step: How to Calculate Your Second Year GPA in Biochemistry And Molecular Biology

1. 1

   Start with the 9 credit-bearing papers

   Biochemistry second year has 9 credit-bearing papers worth 28 credits. English (221109) is compulsory but non-credit in the 2013-2014 source, so it is listed for reference and excluded from GPA credits. Use the Grade column for the 9 credit-bearing courses that count toward this year's GPA.

2. 2

   Give the 28-credit requirement its correct weighting

   Non-credit rows do not enter the denominator. Practical or lab papers that are part of the credit-bearing requirement are still entered separately and weighted by their own credits.

3. 3

   Watch the Enzymes & Bioenergetics paper move the number most

   NU's GPA is credit-weighted, so a 4-credit paper like Enzymes & Bioenergetics shifts this year's GPA roughly 14% per grade step — far more than a 1-credit paper does.

4. 4

   Add the other 3 years to get your CGPA

   This Second Year contributes 22% of the 128 credits in the full Biochemistry And Molecular Biology programme. Switch year tabs to grade the rest — the Overall CGPA at the bottom accounts for every year you have entered.

Grade Points Used for Biochemistry And Molecular Biology Second Year

BSc Honours is graded on NU's standard 4.00 scale: A+ 4.00, A 3.75, A− 3.50, B+ 3.25, B 3.00, B− 2.75, C+ 2.50, C 2.25, D 2.00, F 0.00. Below 40% is an F, which still counts its 4 credits in the denominator.

The CGPA Formula Applied to Biochemistry And Molecular Biology (Second Year)

For the Second Year of Biochemistry And Molecular Biology, your GPA is the sum of (Grade Points × Credits) for each of the 9 courses, divided by the total 28 credit hours. Failed courses (F) are counted in the denominator but contribute zero grade points, correctly penalising the GPA as per NU policy.
