What is this tool?
Our free grade calculator helps you compute your weighted average score across multiple assignments, exams, and projects. Simply enter each assignment name, your grade percentage, and its weight toward your final grade. The tool instantly calculates your overall weighted score and converts it to a letter grade (A, B, C, D, or F). Whether you are a student tracking your progress during the semester or a teacher calculating final grades, this weighted grade calculator saves time and reduces errors. All calculations run in your browser — no data is uploaded anywhere.
How it works
The grade average calculator uses the standard weighted average formula:
For each assignment, your grade percentage is multiplied by its weight. All weighted scores are summed, then divided by the total weight. If your weights add up to 100%, the denominator is simply 100. The result is your overall percentage score.

| Below 60% | F |

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a weighted grade?
A weighted grade means that different assignments contribute different percentages toward your final grade. For example, a final exam worth 40% of your grade has more impact than a homework assignment worth 10%. This weighted grade calculator automatically accounts for these varying weights.
What if my weights don't add up to 100%?
The calculator still works correctly — it divides by the total weight entered. However, weights that sum to 100% produce the most intuitive results. If your syllabus shows weights that don't total 100%, double-check with your instructor.

Tips & Advice
Use this grade calculator throughout the semester to track your progress, not just at the end. By knowing your current weighted average, you can determine what scores you need on remaining assignments to achieve your target grade. For example, if you have an 82% going into a final exam worth 30% of your grade, you can calculate the minimum exam score needed to finish with an A. This strategy helps you set realistic goals and prioritize your study time effectively. For semester GPA planning, pair this tool with our GPA Calculator.
