What is Weighted Grade

Course weights are usually the same for all courses, but sometimes the weights are different for each course. In such a case, the final grade is called a weighted grade or average weighted grade.

Before calculating a weighted grade, we need to know how much each course result affects our final grade. This is the percentage value that defines the weight of each course.

How to Calculate Weighted Grade

As explained above, in order to find the weighted grade, we need to know the weight of each grade. For example, an English assignment can add 20% to your final grade, while a physics lab may have a 10% weight towards the final grade.

Once we have those values, we have to put these in a formula.

Weighted Grade Formula

Weighted Grade = (w1 x g1 + w2 x g2 + w3 x g3) / (w1 + w2 + w3)

*w = Weight of the course
*g = Grade scored

For better understanding, let’s do a sample calculation

For example:

  • Math Course weight is 30% and the grade is 50%
  • English Course weight is 30% and the grade  is 60%
  • Physics Courses weight is 40% and the grade is 80%

Putting these values in the average grade formula, we will get
(30×50 + 30×60 +  40×80) / (30 + 30 + 40) = 65%

How to use Weighted Grade Calculator

Manually conducting the calculation we did above would take a lot of time, and there is always the chance of human error. For this reason, we have created this Weighted Grade Calculator aka Average Grade Calculator.

To calculate a weighted grade using this calculator, all you have to do is to enter the grades and weights and click the Calculate Weighted Grade button.
