Formula

Course grade = Σ (score × weight) ÷ Σ (weights)

Each item contributes score × weight points. Divide the total by the sum of weights — your syllabus weights should total 100%.

Example calculation

Homework 90% × 20% = 18.0

Midterm 78% × 30% = 23.4

Final 85% × 50% = 42.5

83.9 ÷ 100

= 83.9% course grade

Assumptions

Frequently asked questions

My weights don’t add to 100 — is the result wrong?

The calculator still divides by the actual weight sum, which gives your grade on the work counted so far — useful mid-semester. A warning flags the mismatch.

Can I use this before the final exam?

Yes — enter only graded items so far; the result is your current standing. Pair it with the Final Grade Calculator to plan the exam.

Do I enter items or categories?

Either — enter a whole category with its combined score and syllabus weight, or list items individually.
