Enter a value for current grade to see your result.
Calculates exactly what score you need on your final exam to reach your target course grade, given your current grade and how much the final is worth.
Score Needed = (target − current × (1 − finalWeight / 100)) ÷ (finalWeight / 100)
Your current 80% covers 70% of the grade (= 56 points). You need 90 total. Remaining from final: 34 points over 30% → 34 / 0.30 = 96.67%.

Current 85% × 60% = 51 points. Need 80 total. Remaining: 29 points over 40% → 29 / 0.40 = 72.5%.

Your current grade is your average across all coursework completed so far — homework, quizzes, midterms, and any other graded work — before the final exam. Check your grade portal or calculate it using the Weighted Grade Calculator.
A result above 100% means it is mathematically impossible to reach your target grade, no matter how well you do on the final. You may want to adjust your target downward.
A negative result means you have already mathematically secured your target grade. You could score 0% on the final and still reach it — though it is still wise to try.
