Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate what I need on my final?
Use the formula: Required Final Grade = (Desired Grade - Current Grade x (1 - Final Weight)) / Final Weight. For example, if your current grade is 85%, you want a 90%, and the final is worth 30%, you need (90 - 85 x 0.70) / 0.30 = 101.7%.
What if I need more than 100% on the final?
If the calculator shows you need more than 100%, it means your desired grade may not be achievable through the final alone. Consider asking about extra credit, or adjust your target grade to something more realistic.
Does this account for weighted categories?
This calculator assumes the final exam is one weighted component of your overall grade. If your class uses multiple weighted categories, use the weighted grade calculator to determine your current grade first, then use this tool.
