The weighted grade point attained by a student in a particular course is the students’ grade point multiplied by the units attached to the course.
The overall performance of a student during an entire semester shall be determined by means of a weighted grade point average obtained as a sum of weighted grade point of the student (from the set of courses) divided by the total number of units contained in the courses concerned.
