Final Grade Calculator
See what score you need on your final exam to reach your target course grade.
Use this final grade calculator to estimate the score you need on your final exam based on your current grade, the exam weight and the overall grade you want to finish with. It works well for schools, colleges, online courses and any grading system that uses weighted averages.
Enter your current grade, the percentage weight of the final exam and your target overall grade. If your course uses a scale other than 100, such as 10, 20 or 4 points, simply change the maximum grade scale field.
The tool also shows the course grade you would end with if you scored zero or the maximum possible mark on the final. That makes it easier to judge risk, margin and whether the target is realistically within reach.
Use clear inputs to get a more useful result.
How to use Final Grade Calculator
Open the tool, fill in the fields with the data you already have and generate the result step by step. If you want to compare scenarios, change one field at a time so it is easier to understand the impact of each value.

Frequently asked questions
What should I prepare before using the tool?
Keep the key values, labels and units ready before filling in the fields. Cleaner inputs make the final result easier to review and compare.
Can I test different scenarios on the same page?
Yes. The safest approach is to change one field at a time, compare the outputs and note which value actually changes the final answer.
Is the result ready to use without checking it?
It is better to treat it as support. Review the output once more before using it in a quote, document, spreadsheet, technical task or published page.
