1. What is Aggregate Percentage?

Aggregate percentage is the overall percentage calculated across multiple subjects by averaging the individual subject percentages. It provides a comprehensive measure of academic performance across different subjects.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the aggregate percentage formula:

\[ \text{Aggregate %} = \frac{\sum \left( \frac{\text{Subject Marks}}{\text{Total Marks per Subject}} \right)}{\text{Subjects}} \times 100 \]

Where:

\( \text{Subject Marks} \) — Marks obtained in each subject
\( \text{Total Marks per Subject} \) — Maximum possible marks for each subject
\( \text{Subjects} \) — Number of subjects
\( \sum \) — Summation of all subject percentages

Explanation: The formula calculates individual subject percentages, sums them up, divides by the number of subjects, and multiplies by 100 to get the final aggregate percentage.

3. Importance of Aggregate Percentage

Details: Aggregate percentage is crucial for academic assessments, college admissions, scholarship eligibility, and overall performance evaluation. It provides a standardized way to compare performance across different subjects with varying maximum marks.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the number of subjects first, then provide marks obtained and total marks for each subject. Ensure marks obtained do not exceed total marks for any subject. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between aggregate percentage and overall percentage?
A: Aggregate percentage averages individual subject percentages, while overall percentage divides total marks obtained by total maximum marks across all subjects.

Q2: How is aggregate percentage different from CGPA?
A: CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) uses grade points on a scale (like 4.0 or 10.0), while aggregate percentage uses actual percentage values.

Q3: Can I calculate aggregate percentage with different maximum marks per subject?
A: Yes, this calculator handles different maximum marks for each subject by calculating individual percentages first.

Q4: What is a good aggregate percentage?
A: Generally, 75%+ is considered good, 85%+ is excellent, and 90%+ is outstanding, though this varies by educational institution and country.

Q5: How do I improve my aggregate percentage?
A: Focus on subjects where you can gain maximum marks improvement, maintain consistency across all subjects, and prioritize subjects with higher weightage if applicable.
