NMIMS Grading System

What is the grading system in the semester system for MBA students in the Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies? As I have just joined this institute as a first semester student am quite unknown to the marking scheme and grading pattern. So kindly update me regarding this.

Can you tell me in detail about the Grading System accepted by NMIMS (Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies), Mumbai?

Method of calculation of letter Grades and GPA/ CGPA
For the calculation of grades, the following guidelines are observed

(i) Highest marks scored by one for a subject will be taken into account for the batch/ group (in case of electives).

(ii) Difference between the maximum marks and 50 marks would be calculated.

(iii) The said difference is equally divided into slabs of nine letter grades (i.e. A+, A, and A-, B+, B and B-and C+, C and C-)

(iv) Grading is done on the basis of marks obtained by a student in each subject which will be fitted into the above slabs of letter grades

(v) F grade will be assigned to students:
a) who have obtained marks less than 50% of aggregate.
b) who have obtained less than one third marks out of the maximum marks allocated to the respective subject for the term end examination
c) who have obtained less than one third marks out of the maximum marks allocated to the respective subject for the internal continuous assessment

(vi) In case of elective courses, the number of students for respective course / subject would be considered for the purpose of assigning grades for that course

Calculation of GPA:
Grade Point Average will be computed by taking the average of grade points obtained by a student for all the subjects of the relevant term after considering the credit values assigned for the related subjects.

Calculation of CGPA:
Cumulative Grade Point Average is computed by dividing the sum of grade point averages up to the related term by number of terms completed by the student till date.
