Final Grade Calculator

Enter your current grade, how much the final is worth, and the grade you want. Get the exact score you need — instantly.

How it works

Required = (target − current × (1 − weight)) ÷ weight. Example: 85% going in, final worth 25%, target 90% → (90 − 85×0.75)/0.25 = 105% — not reachable, which the calculator tells you honestly instead of printing a fantasy number.

Frequently asked questions

What if I need more than 100% on the final?

Your target is mathematically out of reach without extra credit or a grade change. Drop the target one notch and see what it takes.

Does this work with weighted categories?

This version assumes one current average and one final. If homework, quizzes and midterms have separate weights, average them into the "current grade" first.

What is a good target grade?

Check your syllabus cutoffs — an A might start at 90% or 93%. Aim for the cutoff, not a round number.
