Formula
The final course grade is a weighted average of completed and remaining work:
Final Grade = (W1 × G1) + (W2 × G2)
Solving for the required grade on remaining work (G2):
G2 = (Desired Grade − W1 × Current Grade) ÷ W2
- W1 = Weight of completed work (as a decimal, e.g. 0.70 for 70%)
- W2 = Weight of remaining work = 1 − W1
- G1 = Current grade on completed work (as a decimal)
- G2 = Required grade on remaining work (as a decimal)
