How HEC conversion is applied
Whichever Pakistani university issued your transcript, the HEC conversion is the same: percentage = (CGPA / maximum) × 100. The calculator above accepts both 4.0 and 5.0 maximums so you can handle any HEC-recognised university in Pakistan.

Studied somewhere not on the list? The HEC formula still applies. Use the 4.0 scale unless your transcript clearly says "out of 5.0". allgradecalculator.com keeps the formula list updated whenever HEC publishes a revision.
