Key facts

  • Overall % = internal % × internal weight + final % × final weight.
  • Needed final % = (target − internal % × internal weight) ÷ final weight.
  • Common splits are 40/60, 30/70 and 50/50 — your scheme of study has the exact one.
  • Many universities also need a minimum in the final exam itself to pass — check that separately.
  • Over 100% needed means the target isn't reachable this time.

Worked example

Internal 38/50 (76%), split 40/60, target 75%:

(75 − 76 × 0.4) ÷ 0.6 = 74.3%

That's 75 out of 100 in the final (rounded up).

FAQs

What if my internals are scaled?

Enter the internal marks after scaling (as they appear on your marksheet) and the maximum they're out of.

Can I use this for passing marks?

Yes — set the target to your pass percentage. Remember any separate final-exam minimum.

Does this work for CGPA targets?

Convert your target CGPA to a percentage first, using your university's rule.
