How do we calculate Anna University's GPA and CGPA if we have arrears?
The CGPA and GPA are based solely on the subjects you have completed. If you fail seven out of eight subjects in a semester but receive an "S" on the one you did pass, for instance, you will have a GPA of 10 for that semester. Your GPA and CGPA are updated as you pass each of the courses you failed.
Ignore the subjects you failed; instead, focus on the credits for the ones you passed; multiply those credits by the grade you obtained, and continue adding the values for all the subjects you passed. Divide this figure by the total number of credits earned in the subjects you've completed. This will calculate your GPA. Because the credits for each semester are not the same, you must perform this calculation for all subjects beginning with your first semester to determine your CGPA.

What is a way to know my old semester marks from Anna University online?
From the release of the end-of-semester results until the deadline for applying for re-evaluation and photocopies of the answer sheets, students will have access to the online mark sheet. Check the email sent to your account that is connected to ACOE SEMS if you missed this. You receive a mark sheet in the mail that only includes the grade points—not the attendance rate or assessment scores. If for some reason, the mail wasn't delivered, you can request to see the mark sheet at the ACOE office or from your department's head, who enters the grades for the hard copy, if they are responsible for doing so.
The only other choice is to wait until the end of the following semester when they distribute the hard copies if none of this passes muster. It is suggested that you check your marks within the allotted time and take a screenshot or save the pdf form to prevent such situations.
Is it possible to branch change in the University Department colleges of Anna University after the first semester or year?

To begin, keep in mind that CS is not a core subject, but rather a study of technology. As a term, technology refers to a technique or methodology developed based on scientific principles for the application of such scientific principles in real life. As a result, CS technology is only used in other core streams such as mechanical, automobile, and civil engineering. Many innovations in the mechanical engineering field are equipped with CS technologies, demonstrating that such innovations are created by mechanical engineers and facilitated by CS engineers.
If you are truly interested in computer science, you will learn a variety of programming languages and apply them in mechanical engineering fields such as engine automation, computer-integrated manufacturing, and so on.
