How to Use
Enter your current grade as a percentage in the 'Current Grade' field.
Enter how much of the total grade weight has already been assessed (e.g. 70 if 70% of the grade has been completed).
Enter your target final grade as a percentage.
Click 'Calculate' to see the exact score you need on the remaining work.
If the result shows 'Not achievable', your current grade makes the target mathematically impossible: adjust your target grade and recalculate.
What Is This Tool?
The grade calculator helps you work backwards from a target final grade to determine exactly what score you need on your remaining coursework or final exam. Rather than guessing, you enter your current grade, the percentage weight of work already completed, and your desired final score: the calculator returns the precise score required on the remaining portion.
Why It Matters
Knowing exactly what grade you need removes anxiety and replaces it with a concrete goal. Students often overestimate or underestimate what is required to reach a pass or distinction threshold; this calculator gives you the real number so you can study with focus and intention.
