  1. I am not sure why you did not use dynamic formulas to consider the weighting of various aspects of the course. The way it was calculated, the user did actually have to calculate the weighting themselves instead of excel doing it for them.

    If you did it this way, you could easily transfer the same sheet to other courses with different weightings for the same components.

  2. This beats the old school ways of paper and calculator by far! Saves plenty of time. Thanks for the tech update!
