    Use a calculated field in a query. Something like Tot:[Maths] + [Eng] + [Sci]

    EDIT
    "Name" is a reserverd word in access and should not be used to name an object

    Open a new query in design view
    Add you table to the query
    Add your fields to the grid
    Copy and paste the calculated expression I posted earlier in to the the first line of a blank column in the grid
