About this tool

Final GPA = (current×earned + needed×remaining) ÷ total credits. Solving for the needed average is one line of algebra, but students rediscover it under stress every term. This tool solves it instantly, caps it against your scale (4.0/5.0), and tells you plainly when a target is mathematically out of reach so you can adjust early.

FAQ

It says impossible — now what?
The math is absolute for that target; raise remaining credits (extra courses) or adjust the target. Advisors can also discuss grade-replacement policies.
Do weighted courses change this?
If your school weights credits differently, use effective credit units in the inputs.
