Note
titleTotal Weights

The total weight of all assignments does not need to equal 100 . The total weight can be any number. Assignment values (weights are just relative numbers). Cumulative grades will always be calculated as a percentage of the total assignment weight.

Category Weighting

Category weighting, similarly to assignment weighting, determines what value a category of assignments has in relation to other categories. Category weights are similar in function to assignment weights; the higher the weight of a category, the greater worth the assignments in that category have, collectively, towards a student's cumulative grade.

Note
titleTotal Weights

Similar to assignment weights, the total category weight also does not need to equal 100. Cumulative grades will always be calculated as a percentage of the total category weight.
