How Semester Grades Work

Your semester grade is usually a blend of your ongoing coursework (homework, quizzes, midterms) and your final exam. If your final is worth 20% and your current grade is 85%, then a 70% on the final would give you a semester grade of (85 ร— 0.8) + (70 ร— 0.2) = 82%.

Many schools also average two quarter or term grades into a final semester grade โ€” for example, Term 1 (45%) + Term 2 (45%) + Final Exam (10%). Check your school's specific breakdown, since it varies by district and by whether you're using a college grading scale or a K-12 one.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate my semester grade?
Multiply your current grade by (1 โˆ’ final weight), multiply your final exam score by the final weight, then add them together. This calculator does that automatically and can also tell you what score you need.
What if my school averages two term grades plus a final?
Use our Average Grade Calculator on the homepage to average your term grades first, then use this final exam calculator with the combined term grade as your "current grade."
