Every course's percentage, letter grade and weekly trend, plus what was just graded. No more clicking through each course's Grades page.
For Vanderbilt students on Brightspace
Every grade.
One dashboard.
Your real GPA.
DoreScore puts all your Brightspace grades in one place, weights each class the way its syllabus does, and shows your letter grade and what it does to your GPA.
Free browser extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave and Arc. Your grades never leave your computer.
The problem
Brightspace shows points. Your syllabus decides your grade.
A 6/10 on a quiz that gets dropped and a 6/10 on a midterm are not the same thing. Unless your professor set up a weighted gradebook, Brightspace treats them like they are.

What you get
Know exactly where you stand, in every class.
Weighted like your syllabus
Paste the grading section once. DoreScore finds the categories, weights, drop-lowest rules and letter cutoffs, and you confirm them. If Brightspace already has weights, it uses those.
"What do I need on the final?"
See the exact score you need for each letter, or drag a slider to try a score and watch your course grade and GPA change.
Your GPA before it's official
A projected term GPA and cumulative GPA on Vanderbilt's 4.0 scale, updated every time a grade posts. Pass/Fail and zero-credit courses are left out.
How it works
Set up in about two minutes.

FAQ
Questions
Is DoreScore official?
No. DoreScore is an independent project by a Vanderbilt student. It isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Vanderbilt University or D2L, the company behind Brightspace.
Is it free?
Yes.
How accurate is it?
When your professor sets up weights or releases a final grade in Brightspace, DoreScore uses exactly that. Otherwise it uses the syllabus weights you confirm. Classes without either show a points-based estimate, clearly marked, until you add weights. Your official grade is always whatever your professor submits.
What if my syllabus uses a different grading scale?
Each class can have its own letter cutoffs. DoreScore picks them up from the syllabus when it can, and you can edit them any time.
Does it work on my phone or in Safari?
Not yet. DoreScore runs on desktop Chrome, Edge, Brave and Arc for now.
Can my professors see that I use it?
No. DoreScore reads the same grade data you already see on Brightspace, through your own login, and changes nothing.
