MyUniTracker

About

MyUniTracker is an easy to use tool that is designed to give university students in their undergraduate degree an overview of their unit grades and progress semester by semester. In addition to providing students with an understanding of their performance in a unit, the application also gives useful statistics on their current GPA and WAM, as well as the GPA they can expect if they continued at that current performance. Furthermore, it also provides students with the grade they need to receive in their final exam based on what they have completed of the unit so far (this feature is most useful when all assessments have been completed and students are trying to work out their chances of receiving a pass, credit, distinction or high distinction). Once exams have finished and the final unit result has been received, that final percentage can be added into the application in order to finalise the unit and be stored as a “past unit”. GPA and WAM will change according to final unit grades completed, so a quick real time assessment of these can always be accessed.


Features

The application has common functionality a university student would want, but allows this at a simple press of the button. This functionality includes:

  • Adding, editing and removing units and assessments.
  • View your progress in a unit via a graph of assessment results.
  • Offers an overview of all your results for the current semester and presents it in a single graph.
  • Manage which units are displayed in the overview graph.
  • Calculate your current GPA and WAM based off the entry of past results, and estimates the future value of these based on the results of your current units.
  • Allows users to view their Major/s WAM.
  • Compatible with Curtin students.
  • At the end of semester simply enter your final mark for a unit, press finalise and you will see your GPA and WAM before it is displayed on StudentConnect.
