Basics

How grade calculation works

Percentage grade

A percentage grade compares what you earned with what was possible.

Weighted grades

Weighted grades let tests, projects, finals, or categories count more than smaller assignments.

Ungraded work

Leave ungraded work out unless your syllabus says missing work counts as zero.

Letter grades

Letter grade cutoffs vary, so compare the result with your class grading scale.

Formula

Grade formula explanation

Points grade

Grade = Total Points Earned ÷ Total Points Possible × 100

This calculates the percentage earned across all point-based assignments.

Weighted grade

Weighted Grade = Σ(Score Percentage × Weight) ÷ Total Weight

This calculates a grade when categories or assignments have different weights.

Final exam needed

Required Final = (Target − Current × Current Weight) ÷ Final Weight

This estimates the final exam score needed to reach a target course grade.

This Grade Calculator is an educational estimate. Official results may depend on grading rules, dropped scores, extra credit, late penalties, curves, and rounding policies.

FAQ

Grade calculator questions

For points-based grading, divide total points earned by total points possible and multiply by 100. For weighted grading, multiply each score by its weight and divide by total weight used.
