1. What is the Broward County Grade Calculator?

The Broward County Grade Calculator combines quarter grades, midterm, and final exam scores into a final grade according to Broward County school district policies. It automatically applies the 2/3 rule which can result in an automatic F grade if violated.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formula:

Where:

• Q1 — Quarter 1 grade points
• Q2 — Quarter 2 grade points
• Midterm — Midterm exam points
• Final — Final exam points

2/3 Rule: If the final exam score is less than 2/3 of the midterm score, or the midterm is less than 2/3 of the final score, the student automatically receives an F regardless of total points.
