Weighted grade

79.9

Grade Calculator

Find your course grade when each part counts for a different share. Homework, tests and the final can each carry its own weight.

How it works

Multiply each category average by its weight, add the results, and divide by the total of the weights. The weights do not have to add up to 100, because the total is divided out.

A score of 88 in a category means 88 out of 100 in that category.

Worked example

Homework at 88, tests at 76 and a final at 81 give a weighted grade of 79.9.

Questions

Do my weights need to add up to 100?

No. The calculator divides by the total of your weights, so 2, 5 and 3 work the same as 20, 50 and 30.

What if my teacher drops the lowest test?

Enter the average you get after the drop, since this tool takes one score per category.

Is this the grade my school will record?

Not always. Schools may round, drop scores or use their own rules, so check with your teacher or the course page.
