How it works

Your final grade = current grade x (1 - final weight) + final score x final weight. The calculator rearranges that to isolate the final score you need. Algebra, not magic.

Reality check: if the needed score comes back above 100 percent, the target cannot be reached with the final alone.

FAQs

What grade do I need on my final?

Enter your current grade, the final's weight, and your target. The calculator returns the score you need.

What if I need over 100%?

The target cannot be reached through the final alone. Aim for the highest realistic score and ask your instructor about other options.

What if the result is negative?

You have already secured your target. Even a zero on the final keeps you at or above it.

How do I find my final’s weight?

Check your syllabus. It states what percentage of the course grade the final is worth.

Is this exact?

It is exact given accurate inputs. Rounding and extra-credit policies can shift the real-world result slightly.
