Theory 30/70 auto-applied · labs adjustable · instant result
Tip: enter only completed courses. Leave result-awaited or incomplete courses out — a zero for a pending paper would unfairly pull your percentage down.
IGNOU evaluates most theory courses in two parts: the assignment (TMA), which carries 30% weightage, and theterm-end examination, which carries 70%. Both are scored out of 100 on your grade card, then blended into a single course score. Your final percentage is the average of all course scores.
Practical, lab, and project courses follow the split printed in their own programme guide rather than a single fixed ratio — which is exactly why the calculator above lets you switch a row to Practical / Lab and set its own weights instead of silently assuming 30/70 everywhere.
A first-year BA student enters these grade-card marks (all theory, 30/70):
| Course | Asgn × 0.30 | Term-end × 0.70 | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| BEGC-131 (72, 58) | 21.60 | 40.60 | 62.20 |
| BECC-131 (65, 62) | 19.50 | 43.40 | 62.90 |
| BEVAE-181 (80, 70) | 24.00 | 49.00 | 73.00 |
| BPCG-171 (58, 45) | 17.40 | 31.50 | 48.90 |
Total = 247.00 across 4 courses → 61.75% — First Division. Notice how the 73 in BEVAE-181 lifts the average while the 48.90 in BPCG-171 drags it — the course-wise table makes exactly these patterns visible.
The scale IGNOU commonly uses for degree programmes:
| Percentage | Division |
|---|---|
| 75% and above | First Division with Distinction 🌟 |
| 60% – 74.99% | First Division 🎓 |
| 50% – 59.99% | Second Division 👍 |
| 40% – 49.99% | Pass 🙂 |
| Below 40% | Unsuccessful ⚠️ |
BA / BAG students: every paper is theory, so the default 30/70 rows are all you need. Calculate year-wise as results arrive, then once more with every completed course for your final figure.
BCA students: theory papers work the same way, but lab courses (BCSL series) and the project follow their own evaluation scheme — switch those rows to Practical and enter the split from your programme guide rather than guessing.
PG students (MA, MCom, MSc, MCA): the 30/70 blending works the same, but qualifying marks run higher — commonly 40 per component — so treat anything in the low 40s as borderline and double-check your programme guide.
FAQ
For each theory course, IGNOU combines 30% of your assignment marks with 70% of your term-end exam marks: course score = (Assignment × 0.30) + (Term-end × 0.70). Your overall percentage is the average of all course scores. The calculator above applies this course by course and shows the full breakdown.
Add one row per course, type the assignment and term-end marks exactly as they appear on your grade card (both out of 100), then hit Calculate IGNOU Percentage. You get your overall percentage, division, and a course-wise table — no signup, no enrolment number, everything stays in your browser.
No. This calculator runs entirely in your web browser on any phone or computer, so there is nothing to install, update, or grant permissions to. Bookmark the page and reuse it every semester as new results arrive.
Open your official grade card and, for each course, note the assignment column (Asgn) and the term-end theory column. Enter those two numbers per course above. Skip courses whose result is awaited or marked incomplete — adding zeros for pending courses would drag your percentage down unfairly.
BA and BAG courses are all theory papers, so keep every row on Theory (30/70): enter assignment and term-end marks per course. You can calculate year-wise (enter that year’s courses) or for the full programme (enter every completed course) — the method is identical.
Keep theory papers on Theory (30/70) and switch lab courses (BCSL) to Practical / Lab in the type dropdown, then set the internal vs term-end split exactly as your programme guide prescribes. Lab weightage varies by course, which is why the calculator lets you adjust it instead of assuming one fixed split.
It is IGNOU’s standard weightage for theory courses: your assignment (TMA) contributes 30% and the term-end examination contributes 70% to that course’s final score. Example: assignment 72 and term-end 58 gives (72 × 0.30) + (58 × 0.70) = 21.6 + 40.6 = 62.20 for the course.
IGNOU’s commonly used scale: 75% and above — First Division with Distinction; 60–74.99% — First Division; 50–59.99% — Second Division; 40–49.99% — Pass; below 40% — Unsuccessful. The calculator shows your division automatically with every result.
Treat it as at risk. IGNOU generally requires qualifying marks in each component separately, so a strong overall average may still not clear that course. The calculator flags any course with a component below 40 — confirm those against your programme guide and reappear if needed.
It is completely free with no signup. It is an independent student-help tool, not an official IGNOU service — always verify final figures against your official grade card and programme guide before using them anywhere formal.
This calculator applies IGNOU's standard 30% assignment + 70% term-end method course by course, shows every step of the maths, and never rounds until the final display. Weightage and qualifying marks still vary by programme and course, so confirm important figures against your official grade card and programme guide. Every calculation happens right in your browser — your marks are never uploaded, stored, or tracked. This is an independent student-help tool and is not affiliated with IGNOU.
