Your semester grade combines every assignment category using the weights your professor sets on the syllabus. Homework, quizzes, labs, midterms, and finals each count for a fixed portion of the total.
This calculator is most useful mid-semester when some categories are complete and others are still in progress. Enter completed categories with real grades and skip categories you have not started. The weight total shows how much of your grade is still open.
If your professor drops the lowest quiz or homework score, recalculate your category average first using only the scores that count, then enter that adjusted average here.

A semester grade is the weighted average of your assignment category averages. Multiply each category average by its weight percentage, sum those products, then divide by the total weight. If weights sum to 100, the result is your semester grade percentage.
A semester grade is a raw percentage for a single class. A semester GPA is the 4.0-scale average across all classes you took that semester, with each course weighted by its credit hours.
Leave the average blank for any category not yet complete. The calculator uses only filled rows. The weight total shows how much of your grade is still undecided, which helps you plan what you need from remaining assignments.
Yes. Add a row for the final exam with its weight. If you have not taken it yet, leave the grade blank, or enter your target score to see what the semester grade would be if you hit that number.
