Grading system in university Degree evaluation with class in University (First Class, Second Class, Third Class)

In Bangladesh, the results of bachelor's and master's degrees at public universities can be compared to the British undergraduate degree classification system. Based on CGPA, the class of degree is given as follows: CGPA 3.00 to 4.00 = 1st Class CGPA 2.25 to 2.99 = 2nd Class CGPA 2.00 to 2.24 = 3rd Class

A CGPA of 3.00 or above is considered a First Class Honours degree.
