Unofficial estimate — not a university transcript or WES evaluation.

Formula

  • F = (T − G × (1 − w)) / w
  • w = final weight as a fraction (e.g. 40% → 0.40)

How it is calculated

  1. Enter your current grade before the final (same units as the target, usually %).
  2. Enter the final’s weight of the course (percent).
  3. Enter the overall target. We solve for the final score F.
