I have the option to grade any module as "s/u" this semester and the modules with "s/u" grading will not be included in GPA calculation.
I tried using solver to determine which module to grade as "s/u" in order to maximize my gpa for this sem but results were wrong. I set the objective to maximize C16 (cGPA) and changing variable cells D8:D12. How should i go about setting the constraints?
Is it possible for solver to determine which module to grade as "s/u" and which grade the remaining modules must have in order to maximise my gpa? If so, how do i set up my cells and solver to derive this solution?
Column A is the hardcoded grade and column D has the formula =VLOOKUP(cell from column A,$H$7:$I$14,2,FALSE).
Column E is to calculate the individual elements in the numerator. It has the formula column C * column D
Cells C14 and C15 are just summing up the elements in the numerator and denominator of the formula. You can assume that the formula is correct.
