About Free Academic Tools
These academic tools are free, need no sign-up and run in your browser, so your grades, sources and questions are never uploaded. There are four: a CGPA calculator, a GPA calculator, a citation generator and a quiz maker.
The CGPA calculator works out a credit-weighted cumulative result on the Bangladesh UGC scale, a common private-university scale, US 4.0 and 4.3, the India 10-point scale, ECTS and UK percentage marks, or on a custom scale you type in. It also converts a CGPA to a percentage, a percentage to a CGPA and a CGPA to a German grade, and plans the average you need to reach a target. The GPA calculator covers Bangladesh SSC, HSC, Dakhil and Alim results with the 4th subject rule, and US high school and college GPA with weighted and unweighted results.
The citation generator formats a reference and an in-text citation in APA 7, MLA 9, Chicago, Harvard, IEEE and Vancouver from details you type, with no look-up. The quiz maker builds multiple choice, true or false and short answer quizzes you can play with a timer, print with an answer key or export as a file. Every result is an aid. Your transcript, marksheet or style guide is the final word.
