Final Exam Questions

What do I do if the calculator says I need over 100%?

If the required grade is over 100%, it means your desired overall grade is mathematically unreachable. In this case, your goal should be to score as high as possible on the final to maximize your course grade. You can also use the calculator to find the score needed for a more realistic target grade.

Where can I find the weight of my final exam?

The weight of your final exam is almost always listed in your course syllabus. Check the "Grading" or "Assessments" section. If you can't find it, ask your professor or TA well in advance of the exam.

How does a curve affect this calculation?

This calculator works best for classes with a fixed grading scale. If a class is curved, your final letter grade depends on your performance relative to your classmates. However, you can still use this tool to set a target raw score on the exam, which is often what curves are based on.
