About the Exam Target Marks Calculator

Know your current marks and want a particular final grade? Enter your current score, the weight of the final exam and your target, and the calculator shows exactly what you need in the final.

Formula

Required final % = (target − current % × (1 − final weight)) ÷ final weight.

Tip

If the required score is above 100%, the target isn't reachable; try a slightly lower goal and plan your study time accordingly.
