Attendance Percentage Calculator
Check your attendance percentage, how many classes you can still skip — or how many you must attend to climb back above the requirement.
The asymmetry students learn the hard way: skipping dilutes fast, recovering is slow. At exactly 75% with a 75% rule, missing ONE class takes roughly THREE consecutive attended classes to undo, because recovery classes raise both the numerator and the denominator. The buffer math here is exact — but institutes count medical leave, condonation and lab attendance differently, so treat the official register as final.

About Attendance Percentage Calculator
The attendance percentage calculator answers the two questions every college student asks before a long weekend: "what's my attendance right now?" and "how many more classes can I safely bunk?" Enter classes attended, classes held, and your institution's requirement (75% is the standard in most Indian universities), and it returns your exact percentage, the number of classes you can still miss while staying above the line, and — if you've already slipped below — the number of consecutive classes you must attend to climb back. The recovery number is the eye-opener: because every recovered class also adds to the total held, digging out of an attendance hole takes roughly three times as many classes as it took to fall in.

Frequently asked questions
How many classes can I bunk and still keep 75%?+
Solve attended ÷ (total + n) ≥ 0.75 for n. With 34 attended out of 42 (81%), you can skip 3 more: 34÷45 = 75.6%. The calculator floors this to whole classes. Remember the margin shrinks as the semester progresses — a 5-class buffer in week 6 can become zero by week 12 if classes keep being held while you coast.
I'm below 75% — how many classes do I need to attend to recover?+
Solve (attended + m) ÷ (total + m) ≥ 0.75 for m: m ≥ (0.75 × total − attended) ÷ 0.25. At 28/42 (66.7%), you need 14 consecutive classes without a single miss. That 3:1 recovery ratio (at the 75% line) is why attendance officers say it's far easier to protect a buffer than rebuild one.
Does 75% attendance include medical leave or condonation?+
Policies vary widely. Many universities allow condonation down to 65–70% with medical certificates approved by a committee; some count duty leave (sports, NCC, placements) as attended; others exclude it from the total instead. Those adjustments change both numbers in the fraction, so check your institution's exact rule — this calculator computes the raw register percentage.
Is attendance calculated per subject or overall?+
Most universities enforce the requirement per subject — 80% overall won't save you if one subject sits at 60%. Run this calculator separately for each subject's register, especially labs, which often have fewer total sessions so each absence costs several percentage points at once.
