Introduction: The Grade After Test Calculator is a handy tool for students to determine their expected grade after taking a test. This calculator takes into account your current grade, the test score, and the weight of the test in percentage.
Formula: To calculate the grade after the test, the calculator uses the weighted average formula. It multiplies the current grade by the percentage of the course not affected by the test and adds the product of the test score and its weight.
How to Use:

Example: If your current grade is 85, the test score is 90, and the test weight is 20%, the calculator will provide your expected grade after the test.
