Drop a Test Score

without comments

Change Grade Scale or Schema

without comments

You may have to change the grade scale or schema if you use anything other than a 10 point scale (A = 90-100%). This can easily be done by modifying the existing 10 point schema or creating your own.

Organizing Grade Center

without comments

The Grade Center layout can be organized by dragging and dropping the columns, similar to Excel. Columns can be frozen to help you keep track of grades while scrolling through the grades (frozen columns only function in Interactive view). You can also Hide or Show various columns, depending on what you want to see in your Grade Center.
