How Grades Work
Weighted Average Formula:
Final Grade = (Sum of each Grade × Weight) ÷ (Total of all Weights)
Example Calculation:
- Test 1: 85% (20% of grade) = 17.0 pts
- Test 2: 78% (20% of grade) = 15.6 pts
- Quiz: 92% (15% of grade) = 13.8 pts
- Project: 88% (15% of grade) = 13.2 pts
- Current grade: 85.14% (59.6 pts / 70% total)
Final Exam Needed:
Score Needed = (Target Grade × 100%) - Current Points ÷ Final Exam Weight
Pro Tip: Most US colleges use a 4.0 GPA scale, where A=90-100% (4.0), B=80-89% (3.0).
Example Table
| Assignments | Grade | Weight | Points Earned |
