Step-by-Step: How to Calculate Your Second Year GPA in Geography And Environment

1. 1

   Select the required option packages first

   Choose the Group-A science track or Group-B social-science track; English (221109) is non-credit and excluded from GPA. After selecting the option packages you took, use the Grade column for the 7–8 courses that count toward this year's GPA.

2. 2

   Give the 28-credit requirement its correct weighting

   Unselected option packages are ignored completely. Selected practical or lab papers are still graded separately, so they affect this year's GPA according to their own credits.

3. 3

   Watch the Geomorphology paper move the number most

   NU's GPA is credit-weighted, so a 4-credit paper like Geomorphology 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 17% of the 166 credits in the full Geography And Environment programme. Switch year tabs to grade the rest — the Overall CGPA at the bottom accounts for every year you have entered.
