Needed Score = (Desired Grade − Current Grade × (1 − Final Weight)) ÷ Final Weight, where Final Weight is entered as a decimal (30% becomes 0.3). This works backward from your target overall grade to find what the final exam alone needs to contribute.
For example, with a 75% current grade, a final exam worth 30% of your overall grade, and a target of 80% overall, you'd need to score about 91.7% on the final.
If the calculated needed score is above 100%, your target grade isn't reachable no matter how well you do on the final, given your current grade and the exam's weight. If it's below 0%, you've already secured your target grade regardless of the final exam score.
Enter it as accurately as possible, for example 25.5 for 25.5%. Check your course syllabus for the exact weighting if you're unsure.
A negative result means you've already reached your target grade regardless of the final. A result over 100% means the target isn't achievable given your current grade and the final's weight.
