Generate a semester plan with courses, credit hours, and GPA targets. Free online semester planning tool for students.
The semester planner helps you organize your courses, credit hours, and set GPA targets for the semester. It generates a structured plan showing each course with its credits, the minimum grade needed per course to achieve your target GPA, and a weekly study time allocation based on credit hours. This is essential for academic planning and goal-setting.
Min Grade per Course = (Target GPA × Total Credits - Sum of Other Course Grades × Credits) ÷ Course CreditsThe planner uses the quality points formula in reverse to determine what minimum grade you need in each course to achieve your target GPA. It distributes the required quality points across courses, assuming average effort on lower-priority courses and identifying where to focus your study time.
