How to Calculate Your Class Grade
Your class grade is typically a percentage based on the points you've earned out of the total points possible. If your class uses category weights, each category contributes a different proportion to your final grade.
Enter each assignment's score and total points. If your class uses weighted categories (e.g., Exams 40%, Homework 30%, Projects 30%), toggle on weighted mode and enter the weight for each category.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate my class grade?
Add up all the points you've earned and divide by the total points possible, then multiply by 100 to get a percentage. If your class uses weighted categories, multiply each category percentage by its weight, add them up, and divide by total weight.
What are weighted categories?
Many classes weight assignments differently. For example, homework might be 20% of your grade, midterms 30%, and the final 50%. Toggle on weighted mode to account for these different category weights.
Should I use points or weights?
If all your assignments are graded out of different point values and count equally, use the default points mode. If your syllabus specifies that different categories (homework, exams, projects) have different percentage weights, use weighted mode.
