How does this advanced calculator work?

This calculator first determines your current weighted grade based on the assignments you've completed. Then, it calculates the grade you need on your final exam to reach the desired overall course grade you specify.

What's the difference between this and a simple weighted grade calculator?

While a simple calculator tells you your current standing, this advanced version is a planning tool. It helps you strategize for your final exams by showing you exactly what you need to score to achieve your academic goals.

What if the total weight of my assignments is less than 100%?

That's expected! The remaining percentage is typically the weight of your final exam. This calculator uses that remaining weight to determine the possibilities for your final grade.
