Grades - Grade Calculator, GPA

If you are one of those people who likes to keep track of the Greeks, this is the right app. I downloaded this app when I was in freshman year of college, and it’s been so helpful, I had to buy it. It will let you keep track of what you’ve done so far in class, that way you know where are you missing the points and where can you get in the points back in order to target the desire grade. Of course, it requires some extra work at the beginning of each semester so you have to put every single item of your syllabus for each class, that way you can keep track of each score individually and see the overall result.

The price is worth it. I’m able to add all my classes’ grading criteria and keep up with my grades. This app was helpful versus others because it keeps up with weighted grades and pointed. A final could be worth 30%, homework 10%... etc. I just input the percentage of each and it calculates what I need to make on other assignments to get the grade I insert as my goal. In other classes grades are based on points... final exam is 200 points, homework 100 points... this can be confusing to keep up with but this app takes care of it. I also like that it keeps up with my GPA. Overall I’m very happy with this app.

This app works well and looks nice, but it is missing some features that I need in a grade app. First there is no way to add assignments and their grades under a category. For instance if my homework grade is worth 15% of the course grade, I have to manually average the scores I get on each individual homework assignment and enter that average into the app. A feature that would allow you to add individual assignments underneath a category like Homework and have the app average them for you would be ideal. Second, it doesn’t calculate your GPA at all, which is honestly one of the most informative aspects using grade apps for me. It definitely feature that can calculate your GPA based on credit hours, various grading scales, and based on past semesters is very necessary. These two things are what is really keeping me from using this app.

I absolutely love this app, idk what I would do without it! The new grouped assignments is so perfect in that now I don’t have to go in and recalculate every time! One recommendation though is to be able to name the items within the grouped list. I like to see exactly what each grade was for. If I end up deleting a grade and then adding one for something different, the item numbers keep going up and I get confused on how many assignments I actually have logged. So if I could just rename them so that they don’t all say “item” that would be great. Aside from that though, the app is amazing!

Professors are buttholes when it comes to just telling you what your grade is. ‘I’ll calculate it at the end of the year!’ They say ‘I grade on a curve so it doesn’t matter!’ They cry. But they’re liars! And I want to know my grade now! You just plug in the weight of the assignments as it says on your syllabus, put the grade you got on it and boom! Your grades are right there! Clear as day! On top of that, it also will tell you what grades you need on future assignments to get the grade you’re aiming for. And that’s just the free version! I will be buying the premium version as you can add several terms, have different color schemes, and organize assignments into a more user friendly format. Plus it’s only $8.99 one time. That’s right, no subscription, no monthly fee. You get billed ONCE and you have the premium version for your entire college duration. Which is a great investment if you ask me. Seth, if you’re reading this, you are a genius!
