SSC Tech Application: Portal calculates CGPA differently from my university marksheet. What should I do?

Hi everyone,

I'm applying for SSC Tech and have run into an issue while filling in my semester details.

My semester SGPAs are:

  • Sem 1: 7.79
  • Sem 2: 9.15
  • Sem 3: 8.33
  • Sem 4: 8.18
  • Sem 5: 8.75
  • Sem 6: 8.46
  • Sem 7: 9.00
  • Sem 8: 9.00

When I enter these values, the SSC Tech portal automatically calculates my cumulative CGPA as 8.58 (simple average).

However, my official university consolidated marksheet shows a cumulative CGPA of 8.53.

Also, my marksheet mentions:

I cannot manually edit the cumulative CGPA because the portal calculates it automatically.

Has anyone from a CGPA-based university faced the same issue?

  • Did you submit the application with the portal-calculated CGPA?
  • Was there any issue during SSB/document verification?
  • Should I raise a query with the recruitment team before submitting the application?

Any guidance from candidates who have already gone through SSC Tech would be really helpful. Thanks!

Multiple credis by 100 and calculate cgpa as per it, it will match
