How it works

How to calculate it

Add all points you earned, add all points possible, then divide the two totals. This points-based method works when assignments are not separated into weighted categories.

Current grade = (total points earned ÷ total points possible) × 100

Worked example

Example calculation

If you earned 87 points out of 100 possible points, your current grade is 87%, typically a B+ on a standard U.S. scale.

Before you rely on the number

Things worth checking

  • If your syllabus splits work into categories such as homework, quizzes, and exams with different percentages, the points method will disagree with your gradebook. Use the weighted grade calculator instead.
  • Ungraded or excused assignments should be left out entirely rather than entered as a zero.
  • Enter each assignment separately instead of pre-totalling. Keeping the rows apart makes it obvious which item is dragging the average down.
  • Once you know your current grade, the final grade calculator converts it into the exam score you still need.

Common questions

Grade Calculator FAQ

What grade scale does this calculator use?

The letter-grade label uses a common U.S. plus/minus scale, listed in full on the grading scale chart. Your school may use different cutoffs, so the percentage is the authoritative result.

Can I include extra credit?

Yes. Add extra-credit points to points earned. If the assignment adds points without increasing points possible, enter 0 as its possible points.

Is my grade data stored?

No. Every calculation happens in your browser and GradeKit does not send or save your entries.
