Question 1

How do I calculate what I need on my final exam?

Accepted Answer

Enter your current class grade, your desired final course grade, and the final exam weight. The calculator uses those numbers to estimate the score you need on the final exam.

Question 2

What does final exam weight mean?

Accepted Answer

Final exam weight means how much the final exam counts toward your overall course grade. For example, if the final is worth 25%, then one quarter of your final course grade comes from the final exam.

Accepted Answer

To estimate the final exam score needed for an A, enter your current grade, enter 90 as your desired grade, and enter the final exam weight from your syllabus.

Question 4

Can this calculator tell me if I can still pass my class?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use the passing grade calculator mode, enter your current grade, the passing grade required, and the final exam weight to estimate the score needed to pass.

Question 5

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

Accepted Answer

If the calculator says you need more than 100%, your target grade may not be possible unless extra credit, bonus points, a grading curve, or dropped assignments are available.
