Why Calculate Your Average Grade?
Calculating your average grade is a simple way to get a quick snapshot of your academic performance. It helps you:
- Track Your Progress: See if your grades are improving or declining over the semester.
- Identify Weaknesses: A low average in one subject can highlight where you need to focus more study time.
- Set Goals: If you know your current average is 82, you can set a clear goal to raise it to 85 by the next report card.
- Motivation: Watching your average climb can be a great motivator to keep working hard.
While this tool is great for a quick average, a **GPA Calculator** is better for calculating your official university or college grade, as it includes "credit hours" for each course.
