How Grade calculator works
The grade calculator finds a weighted average from score,weight pairs, one per line. It multiplies each score by its weight, adds the results and divides by the total weight, so weights do not need to add up to 100. Use any score scale, such as percentages or points out of 10, as long as every line uses the same one. The result is rounded to 12 significant digits and calculated in your browser. It does not convert the average to a letter grade.
Before you start
Find the weight of each assignment or category in your syllabus and convert every score to the same scale. Enter numbers only, without percent signs.
A worked example
Entering 85,20 then 92,30 then 78,50 (a quiz average, a midterm and a final weighted 20, 30 and 50 percent) gives a weighted average of 83.6.

Common questions
How do you calculate a weighted grade?
Multiply each score by its weight, add the products and divide by the sum of the weights. For 85 at 20, 92 at 30 and 78 at 50, the products are 1700, 2760 and 3900, totaling 8360. Dividing by 100 gives 83.6, the same result the calculator shows.
What if my weights do not add up to 100?
That is fine. The calculator divides by whatever the weights total, so 1,1 lines give a plain average and 2,1 lines count the first score twice as much. This also means you can enter only the categories graded so far to see your current standing.
How do I find my current grade before the final?
Enter only the categories that already have scores, with their syllabus weights. If your quizzes, worth 20 percent, average 85 and your midterm, worth 30 percent, is 92, enter 85,20 and 92,30. The result, 89.2, is your average on completed work, not your final course grade.
Why do I get an error when I enter 85%?
Each line must contain two plain numbers separated by a comma. A percent sign, a letter grade or an empty line between rows is rejected. Type 85,20 rather than 85%,20%, and make sure at least one weight is greater than zero.
