Understanding Weighted Course Grading
In most college and high school classes, assignments are grouped into categories with distinct percentages. For instance, tests may be worth 40%, homework 20%, lab work 20%, and the final exam 20%. This tool multiplies your percentage in each category by its weight, adding them together to find your overall grade.
Final Percentage = Σ (Category Score × Weight) / Total Weight
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The calculator normalizes the total by dividing by the sum of weights you have completed so far. This gives you your accurate current running grade in the course.
You can enter a score greater than 100% (e.g., 105%) for any category where you earned bonus marks, and the weighted grade will accurately reflect the extra credit.
