Quick answer

Why it matters
Tools and formats change; old menu paths/limits may be outdated.
Check drop-lowest.
Step by step
- Read the syllabus: weights, drop-lowest, curve and rounding rules.
- Convert the current grade to a percentage and confirm which work is still ungraded.
- Back-solve the final: target - (current x (1 - weight)) / weight.
- Check >100/secured/edge cases; don't treat an estimate as a promise.
- Save a screenshot/confirm with the instructor, especially for scholarships/graduation.
Common mistakes
- Treating assignment points as the overall grade without weights.
- Forgetting ungraded work/participation.
- Treating a >100 requirement as 'just try harder'.
- Ignoring drop-lowest/curve/rounding rules.
Checklist

- Current grade is a percentage, not raw points.
- Final weight/target entered correctly.
- >100/secured cases checked.
- Screenshot/instructor confirmation saved.
Key facts
