Figure out your final class grade with our easy-to-use grade calculator. Enter your assignments, exams, and their weights to see your current grade and what you need on the final. 

Finals Are Coming. What Do You Need to Score to Get an A?

It’s that time of the semester. You have your grades from your homework, quizzes, and midterms. But the biggest single item—the final exam—is still ahead. Your final grade isn't just a simple average; it's a weighted average. Your homework might be worth 15% of the total grade, while that final exam is worth a massive 45%.

This can create a lot of anxiety. What do you really need to score on that final to pass the class, or to achieve that A- you’ve been working so hard for? A Grade Calculator is a strategic tool that does the complex math for you, showing you exactly where you stand and what you need to do.

Why a Weighted Grade Calculator is a Student's Best Friend

This tool helps you move from worrying to planning. You can:

• See Your Current Grade: Know your exact grade in the class before you take the final.

• Calculate What You Need on the Final: The most powerful feature! See the minimum grade you need on the final exam to achieve your desired overall course grade.

• Set Strategic Study Goals: If you see you only need a 60% on the final to pass, you can breathe a little easier. If you need a 95% to get an A, you know it's time to hit the books hard.

• Run "What If" Scenarios: See how different scores on the final will impact your overall grade.

4. Set Your Goal: Enter the overall grade you want to achieve in the class (e.g., 90% for an A).
