How It Works

Weighted Grade = ฮฃ((Score/MaxScore ร— 100) ร— Weight) รท ฮฃ(Weight)

Required Final Score = (Target โˆ’ Current ร— (1 โˆ’ FinalWeight/100)) รท (FinalWeight/100)

Example

Homework: 90/100, weight 20%. Midterm: 78/100, weight 30%. Quiz: 85/100, weight 10%. Remaining final weight 40%, target 80%.
Current weighted grade: 83%. Needed on final: 75%.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily. The calculator normalizes weights, so partial entries still give an accurate weighted average of the graded components entered. However, for the "what do I need on final" feature, accurate weights are important.
Standard scale: A (90โ€“100%), B (80โ€“89%), C (70โ€“79%), D (60โ€“69%), F (below 60%). Note that your institution may use a different scale.
If the required score exceeds 100%, the calculator will indicate it is not achievable with the current grades. Consider adjusting your target grade.
