Calculate your overall grade with weighted or unweighted scoring. See letter grades, percentages and GPA for each assignment.
What Is Grade Calculator?
A grade calculator computes your weighted average across multiple assignments, modules or exams, each with different weighting. In most education systems, not all assessments count equally — a final exam worth 60% has far more impact on your grade than coursework worth 10%. Without a calculator, working out your current standing and what you need on remaining work requires careful arithmetic.
This tool lets you enter your marks and their weightings to see your current average. More importantly, it can calculate what score you need on upcoming assessments to achieve a target grade — helping you allocate your study time where it matters most.
How to Use This Tool
Add each assessment with its name, your score (percentage) and its weighting.
View your current weighted average based on completed assessments.
Enter a target grade to see the minimum score needed on remaining work.
Add or remove assessments as your module progresses.
Use the results to prioritise which assessments to focus on.
Tips & Best Practices
Focus your effort on heavily weighted assessments — improving a 60%-weighted exam by 5% has more impact than improving 10%-weighted coursework by 20%.
Enter assessments as you receive results to track your progress throughout the term.
If your target grade becomes mathematically impossible, the calculator will tell you so you can adjust expectations early.
Different degree classification boundaries (70% for a First, 60% for a 2:1) are standard in UK universities.
Common Use Cases
Tracking your module grade throughout the academic year.
Calculating the minimum exam score needed to achieve a specific degree classification.
Deciding how to allocate study time between assessments based on their impact.
Planning whether resitting an earlier assessment is worthwhile compared to focusing on upcoming ones.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do weighted grades work?
Each assignment gets a weight (percentage of final grade). Total weights should equal 100%. The calculator computes your weighted average.
