How to Use the University Grade Calculator UK
A University Grade Calculator UK is a tool that helps undergraduate students estimate their final classification (1st, 2:1, 2:2, etc.) based on their year-by-year performance and university weighting rules.
What It Does:
This calculator computes a weighted average from your Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3 grades and then predicts your degree classification according to UK university standards. Many UK universities apply different weights to each year — for example, 10% for Year 1, 30% for Year 2, and 60% for Year 3.
How to Use It:
- Enter your average percentage for each academic year.
- Enter the weights that your university applies to each year (they should add up to 100).
- Click “Calculate Final Grade”.
- The result will display:
- Your final weighted average.
- Your predicted degree classification.
Classification Thresholds Used:
- 70% or above = First Class Honours (1st)
- 60–69% = Upper Second Class (2:1)
- 50–59% = Lower Second Class (2:2)
- 40–49% = Third Class (3rd)
- Below 40% = Fail
University Grade Calculator UK – FAQ
Q1: What if my university doesn’t count Year 1 in the final grade?
A: Enter 0
for the Year 1 weight and adjust the other weights accordingly to still total 100% (e.g., 0,40,60).
Q2: Are these classifications used in all UK universities?
A: Most universities in the UK use these ranges, but some may use additional criteria like dissertation performance or minimum component marks. Always check your university’s handbook.
Q3: Can I use this for a 4-year degree?
A: This calculator supports 3 years. For 4-year courses (like integrated Master’s), a custom version with 4 inputs would be more suitable. I can build that too—just ask!
Q4: What if I studied abroad or had a placement year?
A: Enter only the years that contribute to your final classification and adjust weights accordingly.
Q5: Is this an official result?
A: No, this is an estimation tool. Official results depend on university policies, exam boards, and module-level performance.
