Weighted grade calculator

Weighted grade averages mirror your syllabus: every assessment category carries a percentage of the final grade, and your recorded scores roll up into one class percentage.

• This dedicated view uses the same engine as the standard grade calculator—bookmark it when you only care about weighted breakdowns.
• Keep each row aligned with the categories your instructor lists (tests, quizzes, participation, etc.).

1. List each category from the syllabus with its official weight.
2. Log the percentage you earned inside each category as grades return.
3. Confirm the footer average after every update to see how much room you have before finals.
4. Duplicate the workflow for another class when you are balancing multiple STEM sections.

• When a professor curves a category, update the underlying scores rather than fudging weights so future calculations stay honest.
• If extra credit is bundled inside a category, add it to that row before interpreting the total.
• Pair this page with the Final grade calculator once the syllabus publishes the exam percentage.
