🏅 Golden Jubilee Scholarship (GJSS) 2024: How to Convert +2 Grade into Percentage
🏅 Golden Jubilee Scholarship (GJSS) 2024: How to Convert +2 Grade into PercentageAre you applying for the Golden Jubilee Scholarship Scheme (GJSS) 2024 and confused about how to convert your NEB (+2/Grade 12) grades into percentage?
This step-by-step guide will help you convert your grades correctly, ensuring your application is valid and complete.
📢 Why Is Grade Conversion Important?
The GJSS requires applicants to have at least 70% aggregate marks at the Intermediate Level (Class 12/+2)3. However, NEB (National Examinations Board, Nepal) provides grades (GPA), not percentages.
You must submit your percentage, not just GPA, when applying.
Incorrect conversion or missing percentage may lead to rejection.

📝 Step-by-Step: How to Convert +2 Grade into Percentage
1. Get Your Official NEB Transcript
Obtain your NEB Class 12 transcript with subject-wise grades and GPA.
2. Use the NEB Official Conversion Formula
NEB’s official formula for converting GPA to percentage is:
Percentage=(GPA−0.6)×25\text{Percentage} = (\text{GPA} – 0.6) \times 25
Example:
If your GPA is 3.20:
(3.20−0.6)×25=2.6×25=65%(3.20 – 0.6) \times 25 = 2.6 \times 25 = 65\%
3. Calculate Aggregate Percentage
If your transcript shows grades for both Class 11 and 12, calculate the average GPA, then use the formula above.
Some scholarships require the aggregate percentage of both years.
Add your Class 11 and Class 12 GPAs.
Divide by 2 to get the average GPA.
Apply the formula.
4. Fill the Percentage in the Application
Enter the calculated percentage in the required field of the GJSS application form.
Attach a self-calculated sheet or conversion proof if possible.
5. Get Authentication
Some scholarships (including GJSS) may require your conversion sheet or percentage to be authenticated by your Principal/Head of Institute137.
Request a signed letter or stamp on your conversion calculation.
