How to use this Retake Grade Calculator

Enter current total earned/possible points, the old score already included in that total, the retake score, and the policy used to count the retake.

Accuracy and limits

Schools use different retake policies. This calculator supports always-replace, keep-higher, and average-old/new point models; it does not infer your institution’s official policy.
