Enter your current grade, target grade, and the final's weight to calculate the score you need.
How to Use the Final Grade Calculator
Fill in where things stand now and where they need to end up, plus how much the final is worth toward the total — the calculator works backward from those three to the one score that closes the gap.
required final score = (desired grade − current grade × (1 − final weight)) ÷ final weight
This is just the weighted-average formula solved backward — instead of computing an overall grade from known pieces, it works out what the missing piece needs to be. This Final Grade Calculator takes your current grade, your target, and how much the final counts, and returns the score needed to hit that target exactly.
Sometimes the answer comes back above 100% or below 0% — that's not a bug, it's the formula telling you the target is out of reach (or already locked in) no matter what you score on the final. A number over 100 means even a perfect score won't get you there; a number below 0 means you've already secured it.
