About this calculator
Final Grade is easiest to get wrong in the setup, not the arithmetic. Final Grade Calculator works out the score you need on the final to reach your target overall grade. It matters when grades, percentages or averages decide a next step and hand arithmetic is error-prone. The worked example on this page (You have 88% going into a final worth 30%. To finish at 90%, you need (90 − 88×0.7) ÷ 0.3 = 94.7% on the final.) shows the full substitution; the calculator above runs the same working on your own numbers, in your browser, with nothing uploaded.
How to use

FAQ
What if the required final score is above 100%?
The tool tells you when the target is not reachable from the final exam alone, because even a perfect final would not raise your overall grade to the target with the weight you entered.
Does the Final Grade Calculator send my data to a server?
No. The Final Grade Calculator runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript; the values you enter never leave your device and nothing is uploaded or saved.
How does the weight affect the result?
Your current grade counts for the remaining weight and the final counts for the weight you enter, so a heavier final makes a given target easier to reach.
What does a negative required score mean?
It means you have already secured the target; even a zero on the final would keep your overall grade at or above your goal.
