Calculate your final course grade based on test scores, assignments, and weighted categories. Determine your current grade or predict what you need to achieve your target.
Enter your scores for different assignment categories (tests, homework, projects, etc.) along with their weight percentages. The calculator will compute your final grade based on the weighted average of all categories. This weighted grade calculator helps you determine your current course grade or predict what score you need on remaining assignments to achieve your target grade.
Most courses use weighted grading where different categories contribute different percentages to your final grade. The weighted grade formula multiplies each category score by its weight percentage.
Final Grade = (Score₁ × Weight₁) + (Score₂ × Weight₂) + ... + (Scoreₙ × Weightₙ)
Where all weights must sum to 100%
For example, if tests are 40% of your grade and you scored 85%, that contributes 34 points (85 × 0.40) to your final grade.
Different courses assign different weights to various assessment types. Here are typical weight ranges:
Most schools use a standard 10-point grading scale to convert percentage grades to letter grades:
Note: Some institutions use plus/minus grades (A+, A-, B+, etc.) or different percentage ranges. Always check your course syllabus for the specific grading scale used.
Let's calculate a final grade with the following categories:
Final Grade Calculation:
34.0 + 23.0 + 17.6 + 12.0 = 86.6%
Letter Grade: B
