How we calculate your grades

Weighted averages at module, year, and degree level, matching how most UK universities calculate grades.

Your university may use a different method. Always check with your institution for official grade calculations.

Your overall degree grade is calculated by taking the weighted average of all year grades based on their percentage worth.

Σ (year grade × year worth)

e.g. Year 2 (40%) + Year 3 (60%)

Your year grades are calculated by taking the weighted average of all module grades based on their credit values.

Σ (module grade × credits) ÷ total credits

e.g. 120 credits across 6 modules

Your module grades are calculated by taking the weighted average of all completed assessments based on their percentage worth.

Σ (assessment grade × worth) ÷ completed %

e.g. Coursework (40%) + Exam (60%)

Each assessment has your achieved grade and a percentage worth. Assessments without a grade are not included in the calculation.

grade × (worth ÷ 100)

Only graded work counts

Targets

Set a target for your whole degree, a year, or a single module. We'll show you the average you need across remaining assessments to hit it.

Targets shown across your entire degree. Most students set these to match their university's classification thresholds:

Set custom targets for individual years or modules when you need more precision than the standard classifications.

Borderline goals - Aiming for 69.5% when you're close to a First
Module priorities - Higher targets for modules you enjoy or need for masters
Year-specific focus - Different targets for foundation year vs final year
Personal benchmarks - Track against your own goals, not just classifications
