How St. John's College of Engineering & Technology (Autonomous), Yerrakota, Yemmiganur converts CGPA to percentage

VERIFIED 2026-08-15 from the college's own SJCET-R24 regulations, read in full; formula at §19. || ⚠️⚠️ THIS ROW BREAKS THE NAAC-GRADE PRIOR I PROPOSED AT THE cvrt AND ssits ROWS. I suggested a published NAAC grade below 'A' makes autonomy unlikely — it held for CVRT (B++) and SSITS (B+), two for two. SJCET'S OWN R24 COVER READS 'Approved by AICTE | NAAC ACCREDITATION WITH B+ GRADE | Affiliated to JNTUA' ON A DOCUMENT HEADED '(AUTONOMOUS)'. A NAAC B+ COLLEGE IS AUTONOMOUS WITH A VERIFIED FORMULA. THE PRIOR CANNOT BE USED TO TRIAGE ROWS AS NON-AUTONOMOUS. It may still help order effort; it must not substitute for a search. || ⚠️ THE AUTONOMY EVIDENCE WAS CONFLICTING AND THE PRIMARY SOURCE SETTLED IT. A 2019 AP autonomous-colleges list includes SJCET alongside GPREC, KSRMCE, NBKRIST and MITS. Against that, careers360 (November 2025) calls it 'one of the major AFFILIATED engineering institutions', and collegedunia, reviewadda and betterstudy omit autonomy entirely. THE COLLEGE'S OWN REGULATION IS DECISIVE. This is careers360's second error in this sweep, after giving SIETK's affiliating university as JNTU Hyderabad. || ⚠️ THE M.TECH R24 CARRIES A REVEALING RESIDUAL PHRASE: 'The following M.Tech. Specializations are offered at present in different branches of Engineering and Technology IN NON-AUTONOMOUS AFFILIATED COLLEGES' — JNTUA model text carried unedited into an autonomous college's own document. Compare SREC Nandyal's residual 'University external examinations'. || ⚠️ THE REGULATION IS THE APSCHE 2023/24 MODEL TEXT, closely matching SVCE Tirupati's and SVCET Chittoor's R23 — same category breakup (HS 13, BS 20, ES 23.5, PC 54.5, Electives 33, PR 16), same 30+70 evaluation, same three-tier Multiple Entry/Exit, same ABC implementation, same conversion line with one decimal and no AICTE attribution. SJCET's variant differs in three places: 18-credit Honors and Minor, the 11-question end paper, and unit-specified assignments. || ESTABLISHED 2001, opening with 180 students across 4 branches; now 540 B.Tech seats across 6 branches, plus M.Tech in 9 specialisations and MBA. 27-ACRE CAMPUS about 7 km from Yemmiganur town on the Kurnool-Yemmiganur road. 1,289 students, 102 faculty. || GOVERNANCE: Secretary & Correspondent Sri K. PARVATHA REDDY; Chairman Sri A.V. RAMANA REDDY; Principal Dr. V. VEERANNA. || NAAC 'B+'; AICTE approved; UGC recognised; affiliated to JNTUA; UGC autonomous. Total intake 921 (betterstudy); fees ₹70,000–₹1,72,000. || ⚠️ ESTABLISHMENT YEAR CONFLICT: betterstudy states both 'Estd. 2005' in its header and 'established in 2001' in its body. Every other source says 2001. || ⚠️ THE RESULTS PORTAL IS ON A THIRD-PARTY SaaS PLATFORM — sjcet.campx.in/sjcet/ums/results. First vendor-hosted results portal in this registry. || The college offers CHALLENGE EVALUATION alongside recounting and revaluation.

Source & verification

own — St John's College of Engineering and Technology (Autonomous), B.Tech Academic Regulations SJCET-R24, §19 Award of Class: 'CGPA to Percentage conversion Formula – (CGPA – 0.5) x 10'

Applies to B.Tech (Regular) admitted from AY 2024-25 and B.Tech (Lateral Entry) from AY 2025-26, under SJCET-R24. 160 credits regular, 120 lateral entry. || ⚠️ THE REGULATION CONTRADICTS ITSELF ON GRADE LETTERS. The grade table uses A+ as the top grade — A+ (Outstanding) = 10 (90 and above), A (Excellent) = 9 (80-89), B (Very Good) = 8 (70-79), C (Good) = 7 (60-69), D (FAIR) = 6 (50-59), E (SATISFACTORY) = 5 (40-49), F = 0, Ab = 0 — BUT THE DEFINITION TWO PARAGRAPHS BELOW READS 'Grades are denoted by the letters S, A, B, C, D and F.' USE THE TABLE: A+ is the top grade at SJCET. This is the exact mirror of the SRIT Anantapuramu case, where the table said S and the definition said A+. Note also D is 'Fair' and E 'Satisfactory' — the NBKRIST/SIETK/SVEC labelling. || CLASS IS AWARDED ON CGPA (§19): First Class with Distinction ≥ 7.5; First Class 6.5–<7.5; Second Class 5.5–<6.5; Pass Class 5.0–<5.5. || Evaluation is 30 CIA + 70 SEE. Two mid-terms of 30 marks each (10 objective + 15 subjective + 5 assignment), weighted 80/20 to the better. Pass requires 35% in SEE and 40% overall. Attendance 40% per subject and 75% aggregate. 90 working days per semester. || ⚠️ SJCET'S END-EXAMINATION PATTERN IS DISTINCTIVE: 11 QUESTIONS rather than the 6 used by SVCE, SVCET and the APSCHE norm — Question 1 compulsory (10 short answers, 20 marks) plus questions 2-11 as either/or pairs, TWO PER UNIT. || Honors and Minor each require 18 additional credits, against 15/12 at SVCE and SVCET.
