FAQs

How much will a 0 affect my grade if I have an 80? ›

If you have an 80 now and make a 0 on a test that is half of your grade, you will have a 40/100 or a grade of 40, which is an F.

It depends upon how many total points are available and what the zero was out of possible points. If you have a 90/100 and a 0/100, that gives you a 45%, which is failing. If you have 90% of 1000 points and get a 0/100, that will land you with an 81.8%.

To calculate grade average, add up all of your total scores. Then, add up all of the total points possible. Divide the sum of your total scores by the total points possible. That is your grade average.

Now that you have a zero, congratulations!, your grade average is now 42.5%. If this is the last week of the semester, and you have had 99 other assignments that brought you to your current average of 85%, then making a zero on assignment #100 will bring your average down to 84% (actually 84.15%).

If it is worth 20%, then your grade will be 96(0.8)+0(0.2)=76.8 96 ( 0.8 ) + 0 ( 0.2 ) = 76.8 . The formula here is 96(100%−x%) 96 ( 100 % − x % ) where x is the weightage of the assignment/exam you got 0 in.

If you get a 0 on that, you grade goes from 93/100 to 93/200. In percentages, it goes from 93% to… roughly 47%.

But if you have more grades making up your 99%, then getting a zero on a 100-point assignment will hurt less. For example, if you've already taken four tests and have a 99 average, then getting a zero on the fifth test will leave you with an overall average of 79.2. (That's the average of 99, 99, 99, 99, and 0.)

B - is still a pretty good grade! This is an above-average score, between 80% and 89% C - this is a grade that rests right in the middle. C is anywhere between 70% and 79%

In an 8-point GPA scale, A+ (97-100%) would typically be a 8.0, A (93-96%) would be a 7.0, A- (90-92%) would be a 6.0, and so on. Here is a breakdown of the scale: - A+ (97-100%): 8.0. - A (93-96%): 7.0.

Is a 93 an A? ›

Common examples of grade conversion are: A+ (97–100), A (93–96), A- (90–92), B+ (87–89), B (83–86), B- (80–82), C+ (77–79), C (73–76), C- (70–72), D+ (67–69), D (65–66), D- (below 65).

Basically, the highest GPA you can earn is a 4.0, which indicates an A average in all of your classes. A 3.0 would mean a B average, a 2.0 a C average, a 1.0 a D, and a 0.0 an F.

In fact, a “D” is considered passing in both high school and college, as it's above 60%. While a passing grade may be as low as 60%, you will want to aim higher for many reasons. As a college student, you don't want to aim to barely pass a class.

1 Expert Answer. If both grades are weighted the, i.e. if they both count the same, then you will have a 50 in the class. This comes from averaging the 2 grades. (100 + 0)/2 = 100/2 = 50.

An 80% average grade translates to a 3.0 GPA—or, straight “B” average.
