## Description

Stop guessing what you need to score on your next midterm to keep your GPA up. This MCP gives your AI client the math skills to handle weighted grading scales and academic planning. You can feed your current assignment scores and weights into your agent, and it will tell you exactly where you stand. If you have a specific goal in mind, the MCP calculates the average you need to maintain on all remaining coursework to reach it. It even acts as a reality check by validating whether a target grade is actually achievable given your current grades and the remaining weight in the course. Instead of manual calculations, you just talk to your AI client to get a clear picture of your academic path.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is my current grade? I have a 90 on a 20% assignment and an 80 on a 30% assignment.
```

**Response:** 
```
Your current weighted average is 84%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I have a current grade of 84% with 50% of the weight completed. I want a final grade of 85%. What average do I need on the remaining 50% weight?
```

**Response:** 
```
You need an average of 87% on your remaining assignments to reach a final grade of 85%.
```

```
Is it possible to get a 95% final grade? I currently have an 80% on 50% of the course weight.
```

**Response:**
