Examples of Midyear Average Calculations<br />

The following examples show how the midyear average is calculated by a school using<br />

the weights specified:<br />

EXAMPLE ONE:<br />

1st marking period grade 40%<br />

2nd marking period grade 40%<br />

Midyear Exam grade 20%<br />

1st marking period grade 90<br />

2nd marking period grade 80<br />

Midyear Exam grade<br />

Blank<br />

EXPLANATION: The exam grade is not counted because it is blank. Since the 1st and<br />

2nd marking periods have the same 40% weight, they are weighted equally in<br />

calculating the midyear average.<br />

EXAMPLE TWO:<br />

MIDYEAR AVERAGE 85<br />

1st marking period grade 90<br />

2nd marking period grade<br />

Midyear Exam grade<br />

Blank<br />

Blank<br />

MIDYEAR AVERAGE 90<br />

EXPLANATION: The first marking period grade becomes the midyear grade because<br />

there are no other grades. This would happen if you have a quarter course without a<br />

Midyear Exam.<br />

EXAMPLE THREE:<br />

1st marking period grade 90<br />

2nd marking period grade<br />

Blank<br />

Midyear Exam grade 100<br />

MIDYEAR AVERAGE 93<br />
