When students access the gradebook they have the option to predict their grade. Figure 2.7.1.2 shows the initial screen when a student views the gradebook.

The student may also enter any blank grades and the Grader will calculate the student's final grade from the entered information. Values the student enters display in green, and calculated values display in red. Figure 2.7.2.5 shows the screen after the student clicks predict.

Class statistics do not update based on predicted and entered grades since the student's points possible are different from the points possible for the other students.
