                              (d)   Determination of academic performance

                                    (i)   The academic performance of a candidate in a semester is indicated by the GPA
                                         and CGPA.  The GPA is determined by dividing the total grade points obtained
                                         by the total credit hours taken in a semester.

                                         The following is an example of how the GPA is determined:

                                                                                  Grade Point

                                                                                                          13
