Final Grade Calculator

Score needed on the final-

How it works

The final counts for a share of your course grade and your current grade covers the rest. Needed score = (goal - current x (1 - weight)) / weight. For example, with an 82% now, a 20% final and a goal of 90%, you need (90 - 82 x 0.8) / 0.2 = 122% on the final, which is not realistic without extra credit; a goal of 85% would need 97%.

FAQ

What do I need on my final to get an A?

Enter 90 as the goal (or whatever cut-off your class uses for an A) with your current grade and the weight of the final. The result is the exact score to aim for.

What if the score needed is over 100%?

Then the goal is out of reach unless your teacher offers extra credit. Lower the goal grade to see what is possible.

What if the final is worth 50% of my grade?

Enter 50 as the weight. The heavier the final, the more it can lift or drop your grade.
