When to Use This Portsmouth Grade Calculator

Use this Portsmouth grade calculator, also described as a University of Portsmouth grade calculator, when you have module percentages and credit values and want a clear, provisional view of your current average. It is most useful after a set of results has been released, before choosing how to prioritise remaining assessments, or when you are checking a target for your final year. Your university's exam board and academic regulations remain the source of your official classification.

Start by calculating each module from its coursework, practical and exam components if needed. Then add the module result here with its credit value. If you are still waiting for results, use the target option to model a range of marks rather than relying on a single prediction. This gives Portsmouth students a practical route from individual assessment marks to an overall degree-classification estimate.
