Grading Codes

Teachers can enter the desired numeric score (i.e. "90," "87.5"), the appropriate alpha score ("B," "A+"), or a special grade code. The default special grade codes are Msg, Exc, and Inc. A grade of Inc or Exc is calculated as a blank cell - it will not affect the student's average. A grade of Msg will be calculated as a "0." In most cases, teachers can simple enter an M, E, or I in place of the three-letter code (the full Exc code should still be used if the class uses the ESNU grade conversion).In addition to standard grade entries.

 GradeSpeed also includes support for "E" (excused  does not count against the student's overall average), "I" (incomplete ‐ calculated as if no grade is entered) and"M" (missing  counts as a 0). "Exc" may be entered as well for "excused" if the teacher prefers. A score of “I” (incomplete) will cause the student’s average to calculate as if there was no grade entered for the assignment – it will neither hurt nor help the average. A score of “M” (missing) counts as a zero for that assignment, hurting the student’s calculated average.
