How to calculate a weighted average?

HAMK uses weighted average in certificates such as the Transcript of Records. You may check your weighted average with the following formula.

Multiply every numeric grade by the module's number of credits e.g.

Business Essentials, 15 cr, grade 4: 15 x 4 = 60

Global Markets, 15 cr, grade 5: 15 x 5 = 65

Startup Business School, 15 cr, grade 3 = 15 x 3 = 45

Work placement, 15 cr, grade HYV (pass) 

Pass grades (HYV) are excluded from the weighted average. Add the multiplied numbers together: 60 + 65 + 45 = 170

Finally, divide the result by the total number of credits earned: 170 / 45 = 3.78
