Grade Calculator

Weighted course grade, letter grade and the final exam score you need.

Your Grade So Far, And What The Final Needs

List each part of the course — homework, quizzes, the midterm, a project — with your score and its weight, and see your weighted grade and letter grade straight away. Weights that do not yet add up to 100 are fine: the grade is worked out over what has been marked so far.

Then set the grade you are aiming for and the weight of the final exam, and the calculator tells you the score you need on it — or that the target is already safe, or out of reach.

Frequently asked questions

How is a weighted grade calculated?

Multiply each score by its weight, add the results and divide by the total weight. With homework 92% at 20%, quizzes 84% at 15% and a midterm 78% at 25%, the grade so far is (92×20 + 84×15 + 78×25) ÷ 60 = 84.2%.

What score do I need on my final?

Needed = (target − current grade × (1 − final weight)) ÷ final weight. If you have 84% going into a final worth 30% and want 85%, you need (85 − 84 × 0.7) ÷ 0.3 = 87.3% on the final.

What if my weights do not add up to 100?

Then some work has not been graded yet. The calculator divides by the weight you have entered, which gives exactly the grade you have earned on the marked work so far.

Which letter grade scale does it use?

The common US scale: 93 and above is an A, 90–92 an A−, 87–89 a B+, and so on down to below 60 for an F. Schools vary, so your syllabus’s cut-offs are the ones that count.

Does it work out GPA?
