The final grade calculator helps to assess your final grade in percentage as well as letter grades. This calculator also helps to estimate the required grades in the final to achieve a certain class grade.
Calculate final exam grade from current grade and target grade:
Calculate final exam grade from multiple current grades and target grade:
Calculate total class grade from current grade and final exam grade:
Current grade is 70% (or C-).
Final exam weight is 50%.
Required grade is 80% (or B-).
The final exam grade is equal to the required grade, minus 100% minus the final exam weight (w) times the current grade (g), divided by the final exam weight (w):
Final exam grade =
= ( required grade - (100% - w)×current grade ) / w
= ( 80% - (100% - 50%)×70% ) / 50% = 90%
So the final exam grade should be 90% (or A-).
Assigment 1: weight1=50%, grade1=16 out of 20.
Assigment 2: weight2=30%, max grade=30.
Assigment 3: weight3=20%, max grade=40.
Find average grade in assignments 2 and 3 needed to get class grade of 85%.
Current grade = Assignment 1 grade = grade1 / max grade1 = 16/20 = 0.8 = 80%
Required grade = 85%
Final exam weight = w = weight2+weight3 = 30%+20% = 50%
Final exam grade =
= ( required grade - (100% - w)×current grade ) / w
= ( 85% - 50%×80% ) / 50% = 90%
This mean that you have to get an average grade of 90% in assignments 2 and 3 in order to get class grade of 85%.
Assignment 2 grade = 90% × max grade = 90% × 30 = 27
Assignment 3 grade = 90% × max grade = 90% × 40 = 36
