Final Exam Score Needed Calculator
Find the final exam score needed to reach a desired course grade.
Formula
Needed final score depends on current grade, desired grade and the final exam weight. A heavier final can move the course grade more.
Example
If the final is 30% of the course, it has more power than a 10% final. Try both to see how exam weight changes the required score.
Common mistake
Use the final exam weight as a percentage of the whole course, not as a percentage of remaining work unless your class rules say so.
