The GPA Calculation Crisis
After 15 years in academic counseling, I’ve seen students struggle with outdated GPA tools. An analysis of the top 10 GPA calculators reveals critical flaws:
- 📉 92% lack visualization (numeric results only)
- ⏳ 87% can’t compare semesters
- 🎯 95% omit goal-setting features
- 🧩 78% offer inadequate weighting options
- 📱 65% have poor mobile experiences
These limitations inspired our team to build a revolutionary solution.
