Grade Calculator

How to use the Grade Calculator

1. For your current grade, add a row for each assignment or category with your score and how much it counts toward the final grade.
2. If not everything has been graded yet, the result is scaled to the weights you've entered so far.
3. For the final exam, enter your current grade, how much the final is worth, and the grade you're aiming for.

How it's calculated

Letter grades use a common U.S. scale: 93+ A, 90 A−, 87 B+, 83 B, 80 B−, and so on down to below 60 for an F. Your school's cutoffs may differ, so check your syllabus.

Frequently asked questions

What if my weights don't add up to 100%?
That usually means some work hasn't been graded yet. The calculator divides by the total weight you've entered, giving your grade on everything graded so far.

What if the score I need is over 100%?
Then the target can't be reached on the final alone unless your class offers extra credit. Try a lower target to see what's realistic.

Does it work with points instead of percentages?
Convert each score to a percentage first (points earned ÷ points possible × 100), then enter it with its weight.
