It covers 3 courses worth 12 credit hours — 43% of the 28 credits that make up the full Accounting programme. It is the heaviest year of the 3 in this department by credit load, and averages 4 credits per course.

   None of this year's 3 papers has a separate practical component, so each grade you enter maps one-to-one onto a written course. The Yearly GPA below updates as soon as a grade is set.

4. 4

   Add the other 2 years to get your CGPA
