IGNOU Percentage Calculator: Final Marks, Grade and Overall %
This IGNOU percentage calculator works out final marks the way IGNOU does: 30% assignment + 70% term-end examination for each theory course. It checks the pass mark in each part, shows the IGNOU letter grade, and averages all courses into an overall percentage, useful for BA, BCom, BSc (BSCG), MA Political Science (MPS) and every other programme.

Overall is the simple average of courses; programmes that weight courses by credits will differ slightly. Practical and project courses use different weightages.
How IGNOU calculates final marks
Counsellors at IGNOU study centres repeat one rule to every new learner: the two parts are weighed differently, and each must be passed separately. Assignments count for 30% and the term-end exam (TEE) for 70%.
Final marks = 0.30 × assignment marks + 0.70 × term-end marks (both out of 100) Overall % = average of course final marks (or credit-weighted, where the programme says so)
Example: 78 in the assignment and 62 in the TEE give 0.3 × 78 + 0.7 × 62 = 23.4 + 43.4 = 66.8%, a B grade.
Can a high assignment score cover a low exam score?
No. The pass mark applies to each part on its own, usually 35% for bachelor's and diploma programmes and 40% for master's. A course with 90 in the assignment but 30 in the TEE is not completed until the TEE is cleared.
IGNOU grade calculator: what the letters mean
| Grade | Marks | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A | 80% and above | Excellent |
| B | 60–79.9% | Very good |
| C | 50–59.9% | Good |
| D | 35–49.9% (40–49.9% for master's) | Satisfactory (pass) |
| E | Below the pass mark | Not completed / re-appear |
Practical, lab and project courses use different weightages, set out in each programme guide, so the calculator is meant for theory courses.
IGNOU percentage for BSCG and MPS
- BSCG (B.Sc General): theory courses follow 30/70; science practicals are evaluated separately. Add each theory course's marks and use the average.
- MPS (MA Political Science): all theory courses use 30/70 with a 40% pass mark in each part. Choose “Master's” in the calculator.
- BAG, BCOMG and other CBCS programmes: same 30/70 weighting; some programmes calculate the overall result credit-weighted.
Checking IGNOU marks by enrollment number
IGNOU's grade card is published on its website: open ignou.ac.in, go to the results section, choose the grade card status, select the programme and enter the enrollment number. The grade card lists assignment and term-end marks for each course. Copy them into the calculator to see final marks and the overall percentage instantly; this site never asks for an enrollment number.
IGNOU percentage to CGPA
Newer IGNOU CBCS programmes show grade points and CGPA as well. Where a CGPA is printed, the conversion rule given on the grade card or in the programme guide should be used; otherwise the percentage from this calculator is the figure most employers and universities ask for.
IGNOU Percentage Calculator: questions people ask
How is the IGNOU percentage calculated?
For each theory course, final marks = 30% of the assignment marks + 70% of the term-end exam marks. The overall percentage is the average of all course final marks.
What is the pass mark in IGNOU?
Usually 35% in both the assignment and the term-end exam for bachelor's and diploma programmes, and 40% in each for master's programmes.
How do I calculate IGNOU percentage for BSCG?
Use 30/70 for each theory course and average them; practicals are evaluated separately as per the programme guide.
How do I check IGNOU marks by enrollment number?
Open the grade card section on ignou.ac.in, choose the programme and enter the enrollment number, then copy the marks into this calculator.
What do IGNOU grades A, B, C, D and E mean?
A is 80% and above, B 60–79.9%, C 50–59.9%, D a pass below 50%, and E means the course is not yet completed.
