Cumulative CGPA is required for master's admissions in both the UK and Ireland. Universities assess your overall academic performance across your entire undergraduate degree, not just annual or final-year scores.

Some universities may review annual or final-year marks if your cumulative CGPA is borderline, but the main requirement is based on your cumulative CGPA. With your 7.91 CGPA, you meet the typical criteria for most master's programs in these countries.

If you have questions about a specific university's policy, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you further.
