Pass planning formula
Needed remaining average = (target grade - current weighted contribution) / remaining weight x 100
The calculator treats your current weighted contribution as the grade already earned and compares it with the total weight still available.
Step-by-step example
- Current weighted contribution: 48%
- Completed weight: 60%
- Target grade: 70%
- Remaining weight: 40%
- Needed remaining average = (70 - 48) / 40 x 100 = 55%
When to use this calculator
- Use it when your gradebook shows weighted category progress and you want to know if a target is still possible.
- Use it before deciding which remaining assignment or exam matters most.
- Use it with the weighted grade calculator when you need to calculate your current contribution first.
Common mistakes
- Entering current average instead of current weighted contribution.
- Forgetting a remaining quiz, project, or final exam weight.
- Assuming extra credit, dropped assignments, or rounding are included when they are not.
How to interpret the result
A passable result means the target is mathematically reachable with the entered remaining work. It does not guarantee the official course result.

What is current weighted contribution?
It is the percent of the total course grade you have already earned from completed work. For example, 80% on completed work worth 60% contributes 48 points to the final grade.
What does needed remaining average mean?
It is the average score you need across the remaining weighted work to reach your target.
What does impossible mean?
It means even perfect scores on the remaining work would not reach the target with the entered weights.
Which remaining item matters most?
The highest impact item is the remaining assessment with the largest weight and available score.
