Most courses split marks between internals (sessionals, assignments, practicals) and a final exam — for example 30 + 70 or 25 + 75. To pass you usually need a minimum overall percentage and also a minimum in the final exam itself.
Enter your internal marks and the maximum marks. The calculator works out the marks you need in the final for your target, applies the minimum-in-final rule, and shows a table for every common target from 33% to 95%.
| Internal / sessional marks you have | 18 |
| Internal maximum | 30 |
| Final exam maximum | 70 |
| Target overall | 40% |
| Minimum required in the final alone (optional) | 33% |
| Marks needed in the final exam | 23.1 out of 70 (33%) |
| Your internal / sessional marks | 18 of 30 (60%) |
| Target | 40% of 100 = 40 marks in total |
| Minimum in the final exam alone | 23.1 of 70 — this is what decides it |
23.1 out of 70 (33%).
| Internal / sessional marks you have | 22 |
| Internal maximum | 25 |
| Final exam maximum | 75 |
| Target overall | 75% |
| Minimum required in the final alone (optional) | 35% |
| Marks needed in the final exam | 53 out of 75 (70.7%) |
| Your internal / sessional marks | 22 of 25 (88%) |
| Target | 75% of 100 = 75 marks in total |
| Minimum in the final exam alone | 26.3 of 75 |
53 out of 75 (70.7%).
It depends on your internal marks. With 18/30 internal and a 40% pass mark you need 22/70 overall marks — but if 33% is required in the final alone, you need at least 23.1, so 24 marks.
33% in theory and practical separately, and 33% overall in each subject.
Exams count whole or half marks, so always round the result up.
