Or the student has one non-dream job and is sitting for his dream job.

In this case, the student cannot sit for further placement and is only eligible to sit for "OPEN" (refer : open ) companies.

2. The student has got a non-dream job

In this case, the student is eligible to sit for his/her Dream job or "OPEN" (refer : open ) companies.

How to convert CGPA into percentage ?

For students under the 4-point credit system, the procedure is CGPA*18+20=Equivalent percentage

Eg: If CGPA is 3.00, then the equivalent percentage = 3.00*18+30=74%

For students under the 10-point grading system, the procedure is CGPA*9.3=Equivalent percentage

Eg: If CGPA is 9.00, then the equivalent percentage = 9.00*9.3=83.7%
