Frequently Asked Questions

How do assignment weights work?

Assignment weights determine how much each assignment contributes to the category grade. Higher weights mean more impact on your final grade.

What if my category weights don't add to 100%?

The calculator will still work, but your grade calculation may not be accurate. Adjust the weights so they total 100% for best results.

Can I calculate partial semester grades?

Yes! Enter only completed assignments. The calculator shows your current grade based on work completed so far.

How do I plan for future assignments?

Add future assignments with estimated scores to see how they might affect your grade. Adjust scores as needed for planning.

What's the difference between assignment and category weights?

Category weights determine how much each category (tests, homework, etc.) affects your final grade. Assignment weights determine importance within each category.
