How to use the calculator

  1. Enter your high school percentage and your Qudurat and Tahsili scores, each out of 100.
  2. Choose a common set of weights, or type the weights your university publishes. The weights must add up to 100%.
  3. Your weighted percentage appears straight away, with how much each score contributes.

The formula

Weighted percentage = (high school × its weight) + (Qudurat × its weight) + (Tahsili × its weight)

Example with 30% high school, 30% Qudurat and 40% Tahsili, and scores of 90, 85 and 80:

(90 × 0.30) + (85 × 0.30) + (80 × 0.40) = 27 + 25.5 + 32 = 84.5%

Common weights

High school Qudurat Tahsili Often used for
30% 30% 40% Science and health majors at many universities
40% 30% 30% Some universities and majors
50% 50% — Majors that don’t require Tahsili

These are common examples only. Weights differ between universities and majors and can change each year, so check your university’s admission guide before you apply.

Tips

  • A higher Tahsili score often matters most for science and health majors, because it usually carries the biggest weight.
  • If you can retake Qudurat or Tahsili, use the calculator to see how much a higher score would raise your weighted percentage.

Guides about this tool

Weighted percentage calculator: common questions

What is the weighted percentage?

It's the score universities in Saudi Arabia use to rank applicants. It combines your high school grade with your Qudurat and Tahsili scores, each multiplied by a weight the university sets.

How do I calculate it without Tahsili?

Choose the 50 / 50 option, which splits the weight between high school and Qudurat, or enter the weights your university uses.

Does a high weighted percentage guarantee admission?

No. The minimum needed changes every year with the number of applicants and places. Check your university's admission guide for recent cut-offs.

Are the weights the same at every university?

No. They vary between universities and between majors, and can change from year to year. Always check your university's admission guide.
