US High School Grading — AP, IB, Honors, and Weighted GPA
US high schools operate grading systems that no generic gradebook handles well: AP weight bonuses, IB diploma matrices, dual weighted/unweighted GPAs, NCAA core GPA calculations, and class rank that must update instantly when any grade changes.

Real-Time GPA and Class Rank — No Batch Jobs
Every grade entry in OpenEduCat immediately recalculates weighted GPA, unweighted GPA, NCAA core GPA, and class rank. There is no nightly batch process, no manual trigger, and no export step. The moment a teacher submits a grade, every GPA and rank figure is current.
