Kokonaispisteen

Kokonaispisteen is the genitive form of kokonaispiste, a Finnish noun meaning the total score or overall score. In Finnish-language texts it is used to refer to the final numeric result that combines multiple components into a single tally.

In sports and competitions, the kokonaispisteen represents the aggregate points across rounds, judges, or disciplines, and it often determines overall ranking or outcome. Systems may report both per-round scores and the kokonaispisteen to show how performance accumulates over the event.

In education and assessment, kokonaispiste may denote the sum of points earned from different parts of an assignment or exam. The resulting kokonaispiste is frequently converted to a percentage or grade according to the institution’s scale, with possible weighting or normalization applied to components.

Calculation and interpretation typically involve summing component scores, sometimes with weights. Depending on the rules, certain components may be capped, dropped, or adjusted, and rounding or normalization may affect the final kokonaispiste. The term emphasizes the total result rather than individual parts.

Related terms include kokonaispistemäärä, meaning the total number of points, and osakokonaispisteet, referring to partial scores. The exact use and weighting of the kokonaispisteen can vary between disciplines and organizations, but the core idea remains a single aggregate score.
