Final Grade Calculator
Find the final-exam score needed to reach a target overall course grade.
Formula: target = current × (1 − final weight) + final exam score × final weight.
About this tool
Find out what score you need on your final exam to reach a target course grade. Enter your current grade, final-exam weight and target.
How it works
The tool solves the weighted-grade equation: current grade × completed-course weight + final exam score × final-exam weight = target grade.
Example
Example: if your current course grade is 82%, the final is worth 30%, and you want 85%, the calculator finds the final-exam score required to reach the target.
Frequently asked questions
What score do I need on my final exam?

Can the calculator show an impossible target?
Yes. If the required final score is above 100%, the target cannot be reached with the remaining assessment weight alone.
Does the calculation work for weighted final exams?
Yes. The final exam percentage is treated as the remaining weighted component of the course.
