Ok, I'm in tenth grade now. Finals are over every thing that you've learned the entire semester, and are worth forty-five percent of your grade. (In most schools) So, If you completly bomb your finals and get an F, I would have to say no, your grades won't average out. The best advice that I can give you is, in math; Reread every chapter, and take notes on everything important, even if you can't use notes on your exams. Writing it down will help you remember. Also, do some examples if you can. In science; Read all of the notes that you've taken over the semester and all of your vocab words. Reread the chapters too if you can. For English; Study all f your grammer and punctuation skills, and try to remember every thing you can about books you've read previously in the year. Always reread if you can. For Gym; it's usually the mile run, and some questions about sports that you've played. Health; Reread all of the vocab, scan over chapters, reread chapters that you have trouble on. Hope that helped! They can be hard, but follow these tips and you'll be fine. Good Luck!! P.S. Study at least one week advance if you can.

well.. idn if its the same everywhere.. but here.. a final is worth a hole grading perios grade.. like.. here.. we get report cards every 6 weeks.. so.. it would count as a whole one of those grades.. and also.. here.. it would only go towards one semester.. like.. the semester your in... :)

It depends what school you go to, in what city. I know that my 9th grade finals were hard as hell. Most teachers have different ways of doing their grades...
Some may make the final count as three tests in the last marking period/term/whatever. Others may average both terms and the final together, others may make your final like 40% final, the other 60% split up amongst the class grades. If your teacher didn't tell you when the year began how s/he was grading it then you should ask.

don't worry too much. If your 9th grade finals are anything like mine were, it shouldn't be too bad.
Usually final scores (for the semester) are calculated like this: Each quarter PERCENT grade is worth 2, so add them together and multiply by two; a final is worth 1 so if you added that to the first two then divided by 5 you would essentially get your final semester percent. For instance, let's say I had a 70% in history first quarter, then a 72% second quarter and got a 67% on the final. I would have earned 351 points towards my final grade. When you divide 351 by 5 you end with 70.2%. So my grade would appear as a C, but barely. But if I got a 65% on the final, I would have a D for the semester. Finals only make a huge difference if you're at the border between grades.
Don't worry too much, it makes it worse. Fill out your notecards (if allowed on the multiple choice formats) and study what you can't fit. Review everything and find a person or two to review with. Also, someone older than you can give pointers, especially if he/she was in the class in a previous year.

normally youll get a study guide, dont worry about it, the teacher will almost always review the week before. for each class it depends how much it is worth, but as for grade point average, i think they go by semester grades, so the d and c would count, but im not 100% sure

finals for 9th grade were easy for me because i had nice study guides to look at. usually the finals count as a quiz grade and if you fail them it could really harm your grade. but if you got a c and you were already passing then there is nothing to worry about.
