Final Grade Calculator: Easily Estimate Your Course Results

Use this final grade calculator to easily determine what grade you need on your remaining assignments or exams to achieve your desired overall course grade.

Final Grade Calculator

Use this simple calculator to determine your final grade for a course. You just need to enter your current grade, the grade you aim for, and the weight of the final exam.

How To Use

  1. Enter your current grade in the course.
  2. Enter the grade you wish to achieve by the end of the course.
  3. Enter the percentage weight of your final exam.
  4. Click on the “Calculate” button to see the result.

How It Works

The calculator determines the score you need on the final exam to achieve your desired overall course grade. It uses the formula:

finalExamGrade = (desiredGrade - (currentGrade * (1 - finalWeight))) / finalWeight

It factors in your current course grade, the weight of the final exam on your overall grade, and the grade you desire in the course.

Limitations

This calculator assumes that all input values are in percentage form and the weight of the final exam is between 1% and 100%. It also does not factor in grade curving or any additional coursework. The result is not guaranteed and should only be used as a guide.
