NU Third Year Biochemistry and Molecular Biology GPA Calculator — Degree (Pass Course) (2025-2026)

This is the Third Year calculator for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology under the Degree (Pass Course) (2025-2026) syllabus at National University Bangladesh. It covers 3 courses worth 12 credit hours — 38% of the 32 credits that make up the full Biochemistry and Molecular Biology programme. It is the heaviest year of the 3 in this department by credit load, and averages 4 credits per course. Of those, 3 are Biochemistry and Molecular Biology core papers.

Paper-VII: Practical is the only paper this year with a practical, lab or viva component. It is graded in its own right, so it moves this year's GPA independently of the theory courses. 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 12 credits weigh into your overall CGPA.

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Third Year at a Glance — 2025-2026

Across the full Biochemistry and Molecular Biology programme (2025-2026), the 3 academic years carry 32 credits in total. Here is how the credit load is distributed — the year you are on is highlighted:

Because NU's GPA is credit-weighted, the papers below have the largest single effect on your Third Year result in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. An A+ in Paper-V: Human Physiology & Endocrinology is worth more to this year's GPA than an A+ in a 1-credit paper:

• 132901Paper-V: Human Physiology & Endocrinology4 credits
• 132903Paper-VI: Clinical Biochemistry4 credits
• 132904Paper-VII: Practical4 credits

Step-by-Step: How to Calculate Your Third Year GPA in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

1. 1

   Start with the 3 papers you actually sat

   The list above is the exact 2025-2026 Third Year course set for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology: 3 core, 0 allied and 0 university-wide common papers. Use the Grade column to set your result (A+ through F) for each one.

2. 2

   Give the 12-credit requirement its correct weighting

   1 of these papers (Paper-VII: Practical) are practical or lab courses graded in their own right. Enter them separately — omitting a practical understates this year's GPA and every CGPA built on it.

3. 3

   Watch the Paper-V: Human Physiology & Endocrinology paper move the number most

   NU's GPA is credit-weighted, so a 4-credit paper like Paper-V: Human Physiology & Endocrinology shifts this year's GPA roughly 33% per grade step — far more than a 1-credit paper does.

4. 4

   Add the other 2 years to get your CGPA

   This Third Year contributes 38% of the 32 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 Third Year

Degree (Pass Course) 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 (Third Year)

For the Third Year of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, your GPA is the sum of (Grade Points × Credits) for each of the 3 courses, divided by the total 12 credit hours. Failed courses (F) are counted in the denominator but contribute zero grade points, correctly penalising the GPA as per NU policy.
