Final Grade Calculator

Enter your current grade, how much the final is worth, and the grade you want in the class. It tells you the minimum score you need on the final to get there - and whether that's actually possible.

Works for any class, any weighting

What you need

Enter your numbers to see the score you need.

Once you know the score you need, spaced review is how you actually hit it - Encodr resurfaces exactly what you're shaky on before the final, not everything equally.

How this is calculated

Your final grade is a weighted average of what you've already earned and your final exam score: final grade = current grade × (1 − final weight) + final exam score × final weight. Rearranging that for the final exam score gives the number this tool solves for. If the result is above 100%, even a perfect score on the final can't reach your target grade from where you currently stand - the tool shows the best grade a perfect final gets you instead. If the result is 0% or below, you've already secured that grade regardless of the final. Nothing you enter here is saved or sent anywhere - it's calculated entirely in your browser.
