How to Use the Grade Tracker

Unlike a one-time calculator, this tracker is designed for ongoing use. Start entering assignments at the beginning of semester and update scores as results come back.

  1. Set grading weights — find these in your course syllabus. They must total 100%.
  2. Enter assignments — add each graded item with its score and category.
  3. Check your running grade — this reflects only graded work so far.
  4. See your predicted final grade — based on current pace through remaining work.
  5. Use "need on remaining work" — to plan study time for specific grade targets.

Example: You've completed 60% of your course weight with an 82% average. To get an A (93%), you need 110% on remaining work — not possible. But a B (83%) only requires 85% — very achievable. Now you know to aim for B instead of chasing an A.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the grade tracker differ from a grade calculator?▼
A grade calculator gives a one-time result. This grade tracker is an ongoing tool you return to throughout the semester — updating scores as assignments come in, checking if you're on track, and seeing what you need on remaining work.
Why do my weights need to add up to 100%?▼
Grading weights represent the proportion each component contributes to your final grade. They must total 100% so the calculator can accurately compute your weighted average. If your syllabus lists categories that don't add to 100%, check whether extra credit or participation categories were omitted.
How is the 'predicted final grade' calculated?▼
The predicted final grade assumes you'll continue performing at your current average on all remaining ungraded assignments. It takes your current weighted score and projects it forward through the remaining weight percentage.
What does 'what do I need on remaining assignments' mean?▼
This tells you the minimum average score you need on all remaining graded work (based on remaining weight) to achieve a target grade like A or B. If it shows 'Not possible,' even a perfect score on remaining work cannot get you to that grade.
Should I include the final exam in my current grade?▼
Leave the final exam score blank until after you've taken it. The tracker will project your grade based on current performance, then you can enter the actual final exam score afterward to see your true course grade.
