English translation:Cumulative GPA/ Overall GPA
Explanation:
There is not much difference between cumulative GPA and overall GPA. The term “GPA” stands for grade point average. The cumulative GPA is the grade point average of all grades a student has secured in a semester or term. However, an overall GPA may be defined as an average of all cumulative GPA’s which a student has secured in all semesters and all the courses in an academic term.

Cumulative GPA (grade point average) can be defined as the average of all the grades that a student has secured in the entire semester or term examinations. This calculation involves all the subjects.

Overall GPA (grade point average) can be defined as the average of all cumulative GPAs that a student has secured in all the courses in the total academic duration. This can be explained easily by an example. If a student’s score of a cumulative GPA in four terms is 4, 4, 3.5, 3.5, then his or her overall GPA will be 3.75. At Damian SAT ACT Prep Center the tutors encourage students to focus on the continuous performance not on one single semester. The SAT or ACT prep does not help substitute for a good Overall GPA. All courses in the “academics” area have to be treated with utmost attention. In a different article Damian SAT ACT Prep will analyze the impact of the AP, AICE, IB, and Honors courses on the Overall GPA.

Summary:

1.Cumulative GPA is an average grade of a particular semester or term while the overall GPA is the average of all the cumulative GPAs.
2.Absolute performance of a student is judged on the basis of overall GPA and not on the basis of cumulative GPA.

A cumulative GPA is the grade point average for a short exam term assessment. This term may be a semester or half-yearly examinations.

An overall GPA is the grade point average of average points scored in many short term exams. Thus, it assesses the overall performance of a student over a year or course.
