How Weighted Grades Work

Each category contributes to your final grade based on its weight percentage:

Overall Grade = Σ(Score × Weight) ÷ Σ(Weights)

Example: Homework 20% (score 90%), Midterm 30% (score 75%), Final 50% (score 80%):

(90×20 + 75×30 + 80×50) ÷ 100 = 81.5%

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a weighted grade calculator?

It calculates your overall course grade by factoring in how much each assignment or category counts toward your final grade. A midterm worth 30% counts more than homework worth 10%.

What if my weights don't add up to 100%?

The calculator will still work — it divides by the total weight you entered. But for the most accurate result, make sure all your category weights add up to exactly 100%.

How do I find my category weights?

Check your course syllabus. Professors list the grading breakdown there — something like "Homework 20%, Quizzes 15%, Midterm 25%, Final 40%."

Can I use this to calculate what I need on my final?

For that, use our Final Exam Grade Calculator — it's specifically designed to tell you what score you need on your final to hit your target grade.
