Grade Calculator
Enter assignment scores and weights to calculate a final weighted grade.
How the Grade Calculator Works
This grade calculator computes your overall course grade by calculating a weighted average of your scores across different assessment categories (such as assignments, exams, and quizzes). Select the weight percentage for each category and input your score.
Formula Used
Weighted Grade = Σ (Score × Weight) ÷ Σ (Weight)
- Score
- — the score received in a grading category (expressed as a percentage)
- Weight
- — the percentage weight the category contributes to the final grade (e.g. 40%)
- Σ (sum)
- — the sum of all weighted scores, divided by the total active weights
Example Calculation
Suppose a student has an Exam score of 85 (weighted at 40%) and a Homework score of 90 (weighted at 60%). Weighted Grade = (85 × 0.40) + (90 × 0.60) = 34 + 54 = 88%.
