Exam Grade Calculator

Find out what score you need on your final exam to reach your target grade. Enter your current average, the final exam weight and your target grade.

How to use

1. Enter your current average percentage for the course.
2. Enter how much the final exam is worth as a percentage of the total grade.
3. Enter the target grade percentage you want to finish with.
4. The required final exam score updates automatically as you type.

How it works

The calculator uses the formula: required score = (target − current average × (1 − final weight)) ÷ final weight. If the result is above 100, the target is out of reach; if it is zero or below, you have already secured your target even with a zero on the final.

Tips

• Check your course syllabus or ask your teacher for the exact final exam weight.
• Use a slightly higher target grade to give yourself a safety margin.
• All calculations happen instantly in your browser — nothing is uploaded or stored.
