Result computation for tertiary institution using microsoft excel
Authors
Emmanuel D Assor, Kalango Davies Samson
Abstract

When a student secures admission into a tertiary institution, he/she is admitted to study a particular discipline. Each discipline has a number of courses, which the student is required to register, study and pass before being considered eligible for the award of the certificate being pursued.

The courses are spread over the number of semesters which the programme is designed to last. Besides the title, each course has identity called the course code. It also has a unit which is a function of the number of contact hours given to the course. A student’s result is the criteria for the measurement of the student’s capability in terms of academic work in the school. It is also used to measure a student’s capability in each subject offered by the student. Without an adequate result processing system, the aim for which results are produced may not be achieved, because any slight or minor of mistake made during the process might lead to a very big problem. This research is tailored towards the understanding and implementation of a computer-based GPA and CGPA computation using spreadsheet application program like Microsoft Excel to handle all related calculations thereby enhancing the preparation and presentation of student grading system for effective student result preparation and to serve as quick guide to lecturers and examination officers. However, all concerned personnel that have the task of result computation, are encouraged to study with keen interest in that they can hand GPA/CGPA computations so as to avert wrong implementation of student scores calculations/computations in the future.
