How to Calculate Semester Grades

Weighted Grade Formula

Semester Grade = (Grade₁ × Weight₁) + (Grade₂ × Weight₂) + (Grade₃ × Weight₃)

The weighted grade system allows different assignments, tests, and exams to contribute different amounts to your final grade based on their importance.

Step-by-Step Process

  1. 1.Multiply each grade by its weight percentage
  2. 2.Convert percentages to decimals (50% = 0.5)
  3. 3.Add all weighted scores together
  4. 4.Ensure weights add up to 100%

Finding Required Final Grade

To calculate what you need on your final exam to achieve a desired semester grade:

  1. 1.Calculate your current weighted score
  2. 2.Determine points needed for target grade
  3. 3.Divide by final exam weight

Example Formula

If you want 80% overall and currently have 75 weighted points out of 70 possible:

Needed = (80 - 75) ÷ 0.30 = 16.67% on final
