Product Description:

Perfect Score is a simple yet powerful teacher grade book program for Mac OS X. Perfect Score provides all the essentials of a gradebook, including a seating chart with student image support (to help the occasional substitute teacher), a color coded attendance chart, and a score table. In addition, Perfect Score has built in support for curves, category weightings, custom grade systems, attendance penalties, dropping lowest grades, notifications of student grade and attendance events, statistical calculations, a note manager, and drag and drop support - so you can drag assignments between documents instead of creating the same assignment over and over again for three different classes.

A detailed explanation of how Perfect Score works can be found in the Philosophy and Usage documentation.

A- in Tiger; D in Leopard - Version: 1.2.6, 3/24/2008 03:24PM PST

It was a promising application before OS X.5 came along; solid and dependable; simple enough to set up quickly. However, in Leopard, certain pop-up menus no longer work (cause app to crash), and this prevents the application from computing accurate scores. Also, there are font problems when typing in new grades.

Have not been able to get in touch with the developer about this since updating about 6 weeks ago. Presuming the application will not be updated for Leopard compatibility. If you're still using a pre-10.5 system, this is a very nice gradebook, but, if you're using Leopard, DO NOT purchase version 1.2.6, as some of its better features won't work.

Larger numbers of assignments cause problems - Version: 1.2.6, 9/25/2007 04:59PM PST

The gradebook "scores" pane works well until the number of grades being tracked exceeds the size of the display. Then the name of the assignments no longer line up the kids' scores. For my MacBook the problem begins to show up at around 25 assignments. This is a major flaw in an otherwise very good program.
