Understand the numbers.
Make a better plan.
Plain-language guides for the questions behind the calculation.
Your current grade is not your final grade
An empty box and a recorded zero mean different things. Understanding that difference makes target planning much more useful.
Points or weighted categories: choose the right calculation
The same two marks can produce different course grades under different grading systems.
What to do when you need more than 100%
An impossible score is useful information. It tells you to change the plan or check an assumption.
Semester GPA and cumulative GPA, explained
Credits are the weights. A short semester should not have the same influence as several years of study.
Is your GPA target still reachable?
Your future credits determine how much room you have to move an existing average.
Estimate your workload before filling the calendar
A full timetable is not proof that your work fits. Estimate the work, then compare it with the time.
Give research, drafting and editing their own time
“Write the paper” hides several different jobs. Make each one visible.
Missed a day? Replan from where you are.
A useful plan should change with your progress, rather than turn yesterday into a permanent deficit.
