How to Calculate the Grade You Need
This determines the minimum grade on upcoming work to hit your target.
Formula
Needed Grade = (Desired Grade - Current Grade x Current Weight) / Remaining Weight
All weights are expressed as decimals (60% = 0.60).
Example Calculation
You have an 82% with 60% of coursework done and want an 85% final grade.
- 01Points earned so far: 82 x 0.60 = 49.2
- 02Points still needed: 85 - 49.2 = 35.8
- 03Remaining weight: 100% - 60% = 40%
- 04Grade needed: 35.8 / 0.40 = 89.5%
