Nepal Examination Board has started to publish results using grades instead of percentages since 2016. Many of you know your grades and GPA, but do you know what they mean?

Grading systems simplify performance measurement by categorizing scores into grade point averages (GPA). Understanding your GPA helps you evaluate your eligibility for entrance examinations, plus two college admissions, and competitive scholarship applications in Nepal.

Key Takeaways

  • GPA measures cumulative academic achievement.
  • Higher GPAs unlock eligibility for top institutions such as St. Xaviers, SOS, and Trinity.
