A: Yes, the marks should include both theory and internal assessment components as provided on your final mark sheet.

A: Some schools provide CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) instead of percentages. This calculator works with raw marks, not grade points.
Q5: Can I use this for ISC (12th grade) percentage calculation?
A: No, ISC calculation may consider different subject combinations and marking schemes. Use an ISC-specific calculator for 12th grade.
