Easy Grader (EZ Grader) for Teachers

Quick reference

Use Questions mode when every question on a quiz or test is worth the same amount. Put in the question count first. Then add either how many were right or how many were missed. Use Points mode whenever any question carries partial credit, extra weight, or a decimal score. Type the points the test was worth, then the points earned or the points lost.

How to use this easy grader

An easy grader, sometimes called an ez grader, converts a score into a percentage. GradeKind also shows the letter grade using your chosen grading scale.

1. Choose Questions for equally weighted questions, or Points for assignments with different point values or partial credit.
2. Enter the total possible score, then the amount earned or lost.
3. Read the percentage and letter grade. Adjust the grading scale to match your school's policy.

Grade calculation examples

The formula is percentage = earned score ÷ total possible score × 100.

• 20 questions, 3 wrong: 17 correct ÷ 20 × 100 = 85%, a B on the default scale.
• 16.5 points out of 20: 16.5 ÷ 20 × 100 = 82.5%, also a B on the default scale.

These letter grades use the example A/B/C/D/F scale. Your school's thresholds may differ. See our grading scale and rounding guide.

Easy grader with half points

Pick Points mode to enter half points like 16.5, quarter points like 16.25, or any partial-credit score with up to four decimal places. Enter the assignment's total possible points, not just its number of questions. For more help, see how partial credit works, the points-to-letter-grade table, or a worked example with questions worth different points.

Need to curve a test for the whole class? Try the Grade Curve Calculator. To score an AP History DBQ or LEQ with the rubric, use the DBQ and LEQ Rubric Calculator. Need a fun math page for class? Make a color by number math worksheet or a multiplication color by number sheet, both with an answer key. For Australian students, ATAR Calculator Australia has the 2026 release dates for every state and an aggregate to ATAR converter, the VCE ATAR Calculator estimates an ATAR from study scores, the HSC ATAR Calculator does the same from NSW HSC marks, HSC Scaling 2025 shows how each course scaled, and the IB to ATAR Conversion uses VTAC's official table.
