How to calculate the score you need on your final
Subtract your current grade’s weighted contribution from your target grade. Divide the difference by the exam weight as a decimal.
With an 88% current grade and a final worth 25%, the completed work contributes 66 percentage points. To finish with 90%, you need 24 points from the final, so your required exam score is 96%.
What if the required score is above 100%?
Your target is out of reach on a standard 0–100 exam. Check the syllabus for adjustments such as extra credit, and use Predicted course grade to see the result with a realistic exam score.
