Percentage Grade Calculator
Enter your module scores and credit values to get your exact credit-weighted percentage average — with grading band classification for UK, Generic, A-F, and High-Pass systems.
Who Should Use This Calculator
Undergraduate Students
Track your module average throughout the year and understand exactly where you stand before results day.
International Students
Compare your percentage average against UK, US, and generic bands when applying abroad or converting transcripts.
Postgraduate Applicants
Estimate your undergraduate classification before applying — many master's programmes require a 2:1 (60%+) or Merit (65%+).
Transfer Students
Convert your home institution's credit-weighted average to a comparable figure for your target university's admissions team.
Foundation Year Students
Check whether your current scores are on track for the minimum progression requirements of your target degree programme.
Academic Advisors
Quickly estimate a student's weighted standing across a mixed-credit module load without spreadsheets.
The Formula Behind the Calculator
Each module's percentage score is multiplied by its credit value. All products are summed, then divided by the total credits. Courses worth more credits exert proportionally more influence on the final result — exactly as intended.
Why not a simple average?
90% in a 2-credit course + 70% in a 6-credit course = arithmetic average of 80%, but the correct weighted average is 75% because the 6-credit course dominates.
| Module | Score | Credits | Weighted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 85% | 6 | 510 |
| Physics | 78% | 6 | 468 |
| English | 90% | 4 | 360 |
| History | 76% | 4 | 304 |
| Total | — | 20 | 1642 |
Supported Grading Band Systems
Select the system that matches your institution. Grade boundaries are indicative — always verify with your university's official academic regulations.

Typical percentage thresholds used by American high schools and colleges.
Percentage Grades in an International Context
A 70% score carries entirely different weight depending on where you studied. UK universities reserve 70+ for genuinely outstanding work; fewer than 25% of students achieve a First Class. In India, 70% is common and a score of 85-90% may be needed to stand out. In Germany, grading is inverted (1.0 = best), and percentage equivalents rarely apply directly.
Direct percentage comparisons across countries can mislead admissions teams and scholarship committees. Always provide context — your institution's grading scale, cohort average, or a credential evaluation from a recognised service.
US / Canada
Most programmes require a WES or ECE evaluation. A 60-70%+ from a UK university typically maps to a 3.3–4.0 GPA for competitive programmes.
UK Postgraduate
Most master's degrees require an Upper Second (60%+) or First (70%+) undergraduate classification, or an equivalent international qualification.
