What do I need on my final?

You need to score

101.7%

That's above 100% — the target isn't mathematically reachable with the final alone. Consider asking about extra credit, or revising your target.

Formula: final = (target − current × (1 − w)) / w, where w is the final exam's weight as a fraction. Works for any percentage-based grading.

Once you know what to aim for, plug your courses into the GPA tab to see how this final impacts your cumulative CGPA.

About this tool

What score do I need on my final?

One of the most-Googled questions in college every December and May. The math is simple: final = (target − current × (1 − w)) / w, where w is the final exam's weight as a fraction. We do it for you with a clear "is this even possible" sanity check.

If the result is above 100%

The target isn't mathematically reachable with the final alone. Ask your professor about extra credit, revise the target down, or compute what's required for the next-highest letter grade. The calculator flags this case in red.

If the result is at or below 0%

You've already hit the target — even a 0 on the final won't pull you below it. The calculator flags this in green so you know you can breathe.
