Olastep1: The Cumulative Grade Point Average(CGPA) is a measuring scale of performance for students.

Courses are assigned units depending on the volume of work required to complete the course.

The minimum number of units per semester =15. The maximum number of units per semester =24.

Each course is graded in unit 1-5.

A one(1) unit course means one hour of lecture OR
one hour of tutorial OR
2-4 hours of pratical per week throughout the semester.

A three(3) unit course means 2 hours of lectures; and 1 hour of tutorial per week.

Level of Performances:
A- ( 70-100% )
B- ( 60-69% )
C- ( 50-59% )
D- ( 45-49% )
E- ( 40-44% )
F- ( 00-39% )

Rating (Credit points per Unit)
A = 5
B = 4
C = 3
D = 2
E = 1
F = 0


Total Load Unit(TLU)-
This is the total number of course unit earned by a student in each semester.
NB: TLU lies between 15 and 24.

To the calculations proper...

If in a course of 3 unit, someone makes a grade of 'A'. Dont forget, the Credit Unit of A is 5. Now, the credit points of this particular course wil be the Unit multiplied by the Credit Unit made. That is 3 * 5 = 15.

Digest that before we continue.

Another example:-
In another course CSC 101[b], a 5-unit course. Somebody made B at the end of the semester for this course. Remember, B = 4. So the credits points for CSC 101 in that sememter would be 5 * 4 = 20.


This calculations applies to each and every course a student sat for during each semester.

[b]NOTE:
Special Electives(SE) does not reflect on GPA/CGPA. Meaning...? you dont have to apply all this calculations to SE.

I wanted to pause here but lets continue.

Please, if you understand or not. Just start from the beginning. Its easy to know and simple!

I SAID, GO BACK!!!


Lets continue now.
GOD BLESS YOU

Now, the student wil add up all the Credit points of each course that made up the semester.

That is 15 + 20 + 5 + 25 + 15 + 5 + 15.... so on and so forth.

What do i mean by 25...? It means 'A' in a 5-unit course.

After the additions, then it is called Total Credit Point(TCP).

In the above example: 15+ 20+ 5+ 25+ 15+ 5+ 15= 100.

And in this, he did 2 5-unit courses; 1 4-unit courses; 2 3-unit courses; 2 1-unit courses.

Hope you havent forgot the Total Load Unit(TLU)...?[ /b]
So, we have it as 5 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 22.

[b]NB-
This does not concerns the Grade this time around. We only calculated here the units for each courses. And NOT the Ratings.

Wait o o o o o

I strongly hope you havent forgotten how we arrive at... =100. That is the Total Credit Point(TCP)

NOW, the Grade Point Average(GPA) for the semester is Total Credit point(TCP) divided by Total load Units(TLU)

SO, this student GPA was 100/22 = 4.54

In your calculator, i think it'l be 4.54545. But you cant do your Rounding-off. Leave it as it is.

So, the G.P.A of the student is 4.54

Cummulative Grade Point Average(CGPA) is the summation of all the semesters Total Credit Points(TCP) divided by the summation of Total Load Units(TLU) for the semesters.

So, if this same student makes the same Grades in same Units in different courses now in his/her second semester. But had one(1) more 1-unit course and scored an 'A' in the course. So, the TCP wil be 100+5= 105. The TLU=22+1= 23.

The student GPA for 2nd semester will be 105/23= 4.56

while the CGPA will be

TCP- 100 + 105 = 205
TLU- 22 + 23 = 45

100 and 22 for first semester.
105 and 23 for second semester
the CGPA = 205/45 = 4.55

Now, go back up to where we had a Break

Just GO UP



Lets continue.

Thats all.
Same calculations applies to everybody and in each and every semester.

Your CGPA starts from your second semester to the Eight or tenth or twelve sememester for a 4 or 5 or 6 - year course respectively.

While GPA is on each semester basis.

DANGER ALERT!

A student whose CGPA is below 1.0 at the end of a semester shall be on PROBATION.
If the CGPA is still less than 1.0 the following Semester, the student shall be required to WITHDRAW.

Last but not the least,

FIRST CLASS -- 4.50 - 5.00

Second Class Upper -- 3.50 - 4.49

Second Class Lower -- 2.50 - 3.49

Third Class -- 1.50 - 2.49

Pass -- 1.00 - 1.49
Pass= Graduate without Honours.


final NB: for each course except practical courses. The mid-semester tests is between 20-40%. And the End of the Semester Exam is between 60-80%. Practical courses have no exams. Just each practicals has each marks which make up the final Grades.

GOD BLESS YOU.
I LOVE YOU ALL.

Samtolly4JESUS: The Academic Staff Union of Universities ASUU
may call off the lingering strike action across public
universities in the country, as the Vice-President,
Namadi Sambo met with the leadership of the
Academic Staff Union of Universities, in Abuja on
Thursday.
The meeting which was held behind closed doors
had in attendance the supervising Minister of
Education, Nyesom Wike and the Executive
Secretary of National Universities Commission,
Prof. Julius Okojie.
The union was led by its National President, Dr.
Nasir Faggae, and two former Presidents of ASUU;
Dr. Dipo Fasina and Dr. Abdullahi Sule-Kano.
Others at the meeting were the Vice-Chancellors of
Bayero University Kano, Prof. Abdulrasheed
Abubakar; Prof. Isaac Adewole of the University of
Ibadan; and Prof. Muhammed Hamisu of the
Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi.
It was however uncertain if yesterday?s discussion
was fruitful as the two parties did not disclose the
outcome of the meeting which lasted for two hours
to journalists.
Fagge, however, told State House Correspondents
that the union would make its position known after
the National Executive Council meeting.
Wike assured Nigerians that students would soon
return to school as government was ready to make
sure all the contending issues were resolved as
soon as possible.
According to sources this was because the Federal
Government had agreed to inject fund to revitalize
the university system.
?The meeting went well, the vice-president made
some new offers that were different from what was
on ground before. For instance, the Federal
Government had agreed to start the injection of
revitalisation fund into the university system
starting with N100bn this year and N150bn in 2014
and this will continue until the university system is
solid enough to stand.
Same old story..

Foreign AffairsUNBELIEVABLE!!! Man Inspired By Egypt's Pharaohs Buries His £310,000 Bentley So by Harrisonn(op): 7:59pm On Sep 19, 2013
UNBELIEVABLE!!! Man inspired by Egypt's Pharaohs buries his £310,000 Bentley so he has can use it in the afterlife

He has all the riches he could ever dream for in this life. But to avoid any risk of missing out in the afterlife, wealthy entrepreneur 'Count Scarpa' is burying his greatest treasure - his new £310,000 Bentley convertible.
In a bizarre announcement on his Facebook page the 62-year-old declared that he plans to do as the Pharaohs of Egypt did and take his riches with him when he dies by burying them.
So tomorrow, he will entomb his brand new Bentley Continental worth over £310,000 to make sure he has a comfortable journey into the ‘other side’. The funeral ceremony, he promises, will be at 11am.


His Bentley is his prized possession, so he's burying it, inspired by the Egyptian Pharaohs, in the hope of having it in his afterlife

In a photo on his social network site Count Scarpa stands beside his black Flying Spur, the latest model on the market, with a cockatoo on his arm and writes: 'I decided to do as the Pharaohs: this week I will bury my favourite car, the Bentley here in the home garden! Bury my treasure in my palace rssss !!!'
He says he’s digging the grave in the back garden of his mansion in Jardins, one of the wealthiest neighbourhoods in Sao Paulo.
On Tuesday, in another photo, sporting a pink tie, with his foot on a shovel, he stands in front of a deep hole with his shining Bentley parked behind him and warns: 'For those who doubt me, yesterday I already started making the hole in the garden to bury my Bentley! By the end of the week I will bury it'
The self-made businessman, who has a degree in economics and is a black belt instructor and owner of the Institute Maruyama Aikido, a Japanese martial arts academy, explains that his decision to start storing up his treasures for the life beyond came after watching a programme on Ancient Egypt on Sunday.
'I was watching a documentary about the pharaohs of Egypt, very interesting. They buried his entire fortune to have a comfortable life "the other side"!' he says.

Will he bury his parrot? After watching a documentary on Egypt on Sunday, he says he is completely serious and is going ahead with his car's funeral tomorrow
Will he bury his parrot? After watching a documentary on Egypt on Sunday, he says he is completely serious and is going ahead with his car's funeral tomorrow. There was no mention of whether he wants his pet bird in the afterlife too

By Tuesday his decision to bury his Bentley had received over 5680 likes and more than 6000 shares.
On Wednesday, a new photo appeared updating his plans and shows just how serious he is. He’s pictured operating an excavator, in a cream coloured suit and lime green tie. It looks like he’s spent quite a few hours digging the grave. In front of him is very deep hole with a huge pile of dirt beside it.
On the same day he reveals that he’s appearing on a satirical talk show on Bandeirantes television, hosted by Danilo Gentili – photographed with him, to talk about the funeral of his beloved Bentley.
In the TV interview he explains to viewers that he was travelling back from his farm after celebrating his birthday on Sunday and started thinking about how the pharaohs were buried with the most precious items in their life.
“I watched the film of the pharaohs and after seeing how they were buried with their treasures I decided that I wanted to copy them and bury my most precious item, which is my car,” he says.
In between his explanation, viewers tweet their comments. One says wryly: 'Chiquinho, is it true you want to bury your imported car because you don’t want to pay your taxes?'
'No,' he answers straight-faced. 'I’ve already shown all my documents to the authorities before doing the funeral.'
Another asks if he wants to adopt a family from Brasilia. He says he’s currently single and doesn’t want a family. A lot of the comments are however, very critical and accuse him of wasting money. Instead of burying his car he should donate the proceeds to help Brazilian people. ‘Maria Lucia’ sends a message begging Scarpa to send the car to her as she needs the cash.

Scarpa has had a brush with death a few times, having been in a coma with a superbug, so he's hyper-alert to preparing for what comes after life

Others are sarcastic: 'This is nothing new. Chiquinho may be burying his car but the Brazilian government has buried the Brazilian people,' says one referring to corruption and the wealth of the nation being 'buried' in the pockets of bent politicians.
Scarpa says he is not one of these corrupt individuals and has paid all his taxes, never been in debt or been bankrupt.
‘Alex’ on the other hand agrees with the crazy decision and tweets: 'I think you should do what you want to do, because it shows that you cannot take anything with you from this life and you might as well enjoy the idea of doing so. However, if you would like to help me with the social project I’m running, I would be very grateful.'
Scarpa is not new to the idea of facing death. In 2009 he was in a coma for over two months after a superbug nearly killed him following a stomach reduction operation. He ‘died’ twice during the ordeal and was given the last rites on both occasions by a priest.
In an interview with celebrity magazine, Caras, in January this year he said: 'When I had the surgery, I got a very strong bacteria that killed several people.

'I was in a coma for 63 days; the doctor told me he had 'opened' me eight times. I came close to death twice. The priest gave me two anointings. This was all because of bacteria. I took it and got away with it. Unfortunately this was not the case with my mother. She had an operation on her femur, got the bacterium and died in February 2012. I am strong,' he adds.
Scarpa lives in one of the most expensive areas in Sao Paulo in a property spanning more than 14000m2. He inherited his title from his Italian-born father Count Francisco Scarpa who was given the honour by Pope Pius XII in 1949, for his charitable contributions to society.
The eccentric businessman benefitted from his father’s wealth and made his fortune from the brewery and mining industry. He now runs an investment company and has been married twice. His first wife died and he is divorced from the second.
He has even met Chelsea Football Club owner, Russian businessman, Roman Abramovich who invited him to visit his yacht in Capri, Italy, for dinner two years ago.
With no children to carry on the family name Scarpa says his cockatoo, which is perched on his arm in the facebook picture showing him standing beside his Bentley, is his offspring.
'This here is my "daughter",' he said in the interview with Caras. 'She is called Filomena Leopoldina Sofia Scarpa. She is six-months-old and is endangered,' he said.
The white cockatoo – which even has her own business card - is one of the most expensive birds in the world costing around £14,000.
The Pharaohs were known for burying their beloved pets with them so they could enjoy their company in the afterlife. So far Scarpa hasn’t said whether he plans to do the same with Filomena.

PoliticsAMAZING!!! China Opens World’s Highest Civilian Airport On Tibetan Plateau. (SEE by Harrisonn(op): 12:41pm On Sep 18, 2013
The world’s highest civilian airport opened at an altitude of 4,411 meters on the Tibetan plateau in the south-western Chinese province of Sichuan, state media said on Tuesday.

The Daocheng Yading airport in Ganzi prefecture’s Daocheng county, or Dapba in Tibetan, launched its first commercial flights on Monday, shortening the travel time from the provincial capital of Chengdu from two days by road to about one hour by plane.

Built in two years at a cost of 255 million dollars, the single-runway airport is expected to boost the local economy by promoting tourism to the Yading nature reserve and other nearby sights, said Yexe Dawa, the Governor of Ganzi.

Daily flights will initially operate between Daocheng and Chengdu, but the government plans to open routes to major Chinese cities such as Chongqing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, the official Xinhua news agency said.

The airport is 77 metres higher than the previous record holder, the 4,334-metre Bangda airport in Qamdo in China’s Tibet Autonomous Region.

Ganzi is a restive area where local Tibetans protesting to uphold their political, religious and cultural rights have clashed with police several times in recent years

EducationASUU Strike .. Uniabuja Students Protest Prolonged ASUU Strike! by Harrisonn(op): 9:00am On Sep 18, 2013
Students of the University of Abuja, UNIABUJA on Monday staged a protest against the prolonged nationwide ASUU strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
The protesting students called for an end to the strike, saying that it had paralyzed academic activities in the nation’s Universities and was gradually mortgaging their future.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the protesting students, who carried placards, first converged on the SDP Junction in Gwagwalada before moving towards the Airport Road.
They urged ASUU and the Federal Government to amicably address the issues that constitute the “bone of contention” in the overall interest of the students and the nation at large.
One of the student union leaders, Mr. Toyonkiki Sunday, said the protest was to draw the attention of ASUU and the Federal Government to the pitiable plight of the students.
Sunday said students were fed up with staying at home indefinitely and implored the two parties to explore all avenues to resolve the dispute amicably and immediately.
“Our only reason for staging this protest is to draw the attention of ASUU and the government to our plight; we are tired of staying at home,” he said.
Another student, Peter Egbe, a 300-level English Language student said that ASUU and the FG “should, by whatever means, resolve their differences as soon as possible to enable us return to class.”
NAN reports that all efforts to get the views of the University Public Relations Officer on the students’ protest proved abortive.
Also, civil society groups under the auspices of Joint Action Front and the Academic Staff Union of Universities will on Thursday converge on Abeokuta, Ogun State to protest against the failure of the Federal Government to meet the demands of the striking University teachers.
Teachers in the nation’s public Universities commenced industrial action last July 1 to demand the implementation of the 2009 agreement they signed with Federal Government.
Addressing journalists in Abeokuta on Monday, the JAF Secretary, Abiodun Aremu, said the planned protest was to show their dissatisfaction with the manner the three tiers of government were funding public education in the country.
According to him, the demands of ASUU and other unions in the nation’s tertiary Institutions are to improve the education sector.
He added that the disruption of the academic calendar as well as falling standard of education at all levels were pointers to a bleak future for the current generation of Nigerians.
He said, “The government should be blamed for all the crises in the education sector, including the incessant strikes. The unions in the sector are not making fresh demands. They are on strike because federal and state governments failed to implement agreements they freely entered into and signed with the unions.”

According to reliable sources, the ministry's board moved Joy Ajananku and her children out of her husband's Lagos home into a 3-bedroom flat in Abule Egba, Lagos after constant harassment from the prophet's family, who are insisting that Joy is not legally married to their son.

Joy and some members of the church are getting ready to take late Ajanaku's family to court over his estate.
