What do I need on the final?

Enter your current grade, the final exam's weight and your target. We'll tell you exactly what to aim for.

Grade needed on the final–
By target

How it's calculated

If your current grade covers everything except the final, the grade you need is: (target − current × (1 − final weight)) ÷ final weight.

Example: 72% before a final worth 40%, target 75%: (75 − 72 × 0.6) ÷ 0.4 = (75 − 43.2) ÷ 0.4 = 79.5%.

What next?

A big gap between your current grade and the grade you need calls for a precise study plan. Our guides on Calculus I and the Secondary 4 exam can help you focus.

Frequently asked questions

My course has assessments after the final. What then?

The calculator assumes the final is the last assessment. If other work remains, add its weight to the final's for an estimate.

The result is over 100%. Is it over?

Not necessarily: some teachers have special rules (retakes, best grade). Talk to them early.

Does it work for high school and university?

Yes, the math is the same at every level.
