Short answer

How can I tell which assignments matter most for my grade?

Your AI uses the weighted average logic to calculate how much each category, like exams or homework, contributes to your total score. It highlights the high-impact areas where a low score would hurt you the most. You'll get a clear breakdown of your risk levels by category.

The outcomes.

Where your grade data lands.

The AI processes your raw scores into actionable risk assessments.

RISK

High impact areas

The AI identifies categories where a single bad grade will tank your average. You get a list of these critical zones first.

STABILITY

Current standing

It calculates your current running average based on completed work. This shows you exactly where you stand right now.

FORECAST

Future requirements

The AI determines what scores you need on upcoming tasks to hit a specific target. It maps out the math for your goal.

HUMAN

Manual adjustments

You decide if you want to re-weight categories or add hypothetical scores. The AI provides the math, but you make the calls.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI acts as a mathematical layer over your existing gradebook.

  1. Analyze weight distribution

    The AI looks at your syllabus or gradebook to see how much each category is worth. It identifies the heavy hitters.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI change my grades in my school portal?

    No. The AI can only read your data and perform calculations. It has no permission to write or modify your official records.

    Does the AI automatically update when I get a new grade?

    The AI reads the data you provide through the connection. You'll need to ask it to re-run the calculation after new grades are posted.

  • 03

    Can I use this for multiple different courses?

    Yes. As long as you can point the AI to the data for each course, it can calculate risks for any subject.

  • 04

    Will the AI delete any of my assignment data?

    No. This MCP is read-only for your grade data. It cannot delete or alter any information it accesses.
