How to work it out yourself

Needed = (target average × (total weight + weight of next test) − sum of (grade × weight)) ÷ weight of next test

Example: you have a 6 (weight 1) and a 5 (weight 2) and you want an average of 5.5. The next test counts once. Then it is (5.5 × (3 + 1) − (6 + 10)) ÷ 1 = 22 − 16 = 6. So you need at least a 6.0.

Frequently asked questions

Why do I get a grade below 1 or even a negative number?

Then any grade reaches your goal. The calculator shows the exact mathematical minimum and does not round it up to 1.

What does a result above 10 mean?

Then your goal cannot be reached with one more test. See what a lower target gives, or how it works out over several tests.

How does weighting work?

A test with weight 3 counts three times as much as a test with weight 1. If you leave the weight empty, the calculator uses 1.

Does the result match Magister?

The calculator only uses the grades and weights you enter; it is an estimate. Schools may round differently or use terms and resits. The grades in Magister and your school's rules always prevail.
