MARKS NEEDED

This marks needed calculator shows how many more marks are required to reach a pass mark.

You can set the pass target as a percentage or as a direct mark.

Enter the total marks, your current marks and the pass threshold.

Choose percentage mode for a pass percentage, or mark mode for a fixed pass mark.

If the result is below zero, no more marks are needed.

Use percentage mode when the pass rule is written as 40%, 50%, 60% or another percentage.

Use mark mode when you already know the pass mark, such as 40 out of 80.

The calculator compares your current marks directly against that mark.
