What it does
The calculator estimates your current class grade and the score needed on a final exam to reach your target.
How to use it
Choose weighted or points mode, enter each score, and adjust the final exam weight and target grade.
Formula
Required final = (target - current x (1 - final weight)) / final weight.
Example
If your current grade is 88% and the final is worth 20%, you need about 98% on the final to finish with 90%.
FAQs

A weighted grade gives different assignments or categories different importance, such as homework at 40% and exams at 60%.
How is the required final exam score calculated?
The calculator compares your current grade, target grade, and final exam weight to estimate the exam score needed to reach the target.
Can I use points instead of weights?
