GradeSim at Mac App Store analyse

Customer Reviews ----------------- Great App!! A++ This app is so helpful! Highly recommended! Brilliant Takes a sec to figure out but very useful!!! =============================== Finally, a real grade simulation tool that students can use to know for sure where they stand with regard to grade point averages and GPA. GradeSim allows the student to track current actual grades and their cumulative GPA for each course. It also provides the student with a *grade simulation* interface that allows them to perform true "what if" analysis. In the simulator, the student can: ---------------------------------------------------------- *** Manipulate any/all existing grades. Why would you do this? It is helpful in situations where students can re-take quizzes, homework assignments, tests, ...or in situations where there have been grading errors and the teacher announces to the class that all mid-term exam scores will be increased by 4pts. *** Enter any number of fake scores for upcoming quizzes, tests, final-exams, etc... The student can perform true "what-if" analysis by entering new scores. GradeSim shows instant updates to grade averages and GPA. *** Best of all, each grade in the simulator has a +/- button that allows the student to "walk" individual scores up or down in order to see the exact values needed to achieve a particular grade in the class. Other key features of GradeSim: ---------------------------------------------------------- ** supports AP courses (+1 GPA pt), Honors courses (+.5 GPA pts), and regular courses. ** supports both weighted and total points grading schemes ** supports grading scale of: 98 : A+, 93 : A, 90 : A - 87 : B+, 83 : B 80 : B- 77 : C+, 73 : C, 70 - C- 67 : D+, 63 : D, 60 - D- <60 - F
