Exam Weighted Grade Calculator

Combine exam results using their stated weights. Weights below 100% produce an average of the supplied portion; the uncovered remainder is reported separately.

The total supplied weight must be above 0 and at most 100%.

Calculation notes

Understand the Exam Weighted Grade Calculator

Exam Weighted Grade Calculator validates rows: grade (%), weight (%) before applying the displayed equation. The total supplied weight must be above 0 and at most 100%.

Formula and logic

What is the formula for the Exam Weighted Grade Calculator?

Exam Weighted Grade Calculator: grade = Σ(score × weight) / Σweight. Input definitions: rows = Rows: grade (%), weight (%). Use the selected convention throughout the calculation.

Worked example

How can I reproduce the Exam Weighted Grade Calculator example?

Exam Weighted Grade Calculator baseline input: Rows: grade (%), weight (%): 80 40 / 90 60. Output: Weighted grade (normalized over supplied weights) = 86; Covered course weight = 100 %. Substitute these values into the displayed equation to reproduce the result.

How to read the result

How should I interpret the Exam Weighted Grade Calculator result?

  • Read weighted grade (normalized over supplied weights) with its stated unit and convention. The default example and the independent worked scenario use different inputs, so compare the assumptions before comparing the numbers.
  • Change one input at a time and use the equation to explain the result; do not mix unit, grade-scale, time-zone or rounding conventions across comparisons.
Limits and assumptions

What limits apply to the Exam Weighted Grade Calculator?

  • The total supplied weight must be above 0 and at most 100%.
  • An unfilled assessment is not silently treated as a zero grade.

Four steps to check your inputs and results

  1. Combine exam results using their stated weights. Weights below 100% produce an average of the supplied portion; the uncovered remainder is reported separately.
  2. Enter Rows: grade (%), weight (%) in the stated format. Baseline values are for reproduction.
  3. Check the output unit and convention: Read weighted grade (normalized over supplied weights) with its stated unit and convention. The default example and the independent worked scenario use different inputs, so compare the assumptions before comparing the numbers.
  4. Change one input and compare the result. The total supplied weight must be above 0 and at most 100%. An unfilled assessment is not silently treated as a zero grade.

Exam Weighted Grade Calculator: calculation relationships

Normalize only over supplied assessment weights. Scores 80 and 100 with weights 25 and 75 give (80×25 + 100×75)/100 = 95%. If supplied weights total 50, the denominator is 50: the answer describes the completed portion, not the final course grade. The covered-weight output keeps that distinction visible.

grade = Σ(score × weight) / Σweight
