CoursePro is an easy to use application for students to keep track of courses, assignments, and grades. With CoursePro, you can keep track of your school assignments using a simple to-do style list that has been specifically designed for students. Define Assignment Types—such as quiz, homework, project, or lab—to keep track of your weighted grades the way your professor does. CoursePro automatically keeps a current report card, so you can see exactly what your grades are at any time. CoursePro even allows you to specify which Assignment Types have ‘drops’. CoursePro will then automatically drop the lowest graded assignments for that type.
Price: Trial, $2.99
AndroidTapp.com Android App Review:
Features:
CoursePro Android app features simple education assignment and course tracking capabilities in addition to a grading scale. Track your Course, Assignments, along with the grade achieved with the Report card feature. Gripe Alert: CoursePro is missing a vital component, the ability to receive notifications for assignment due dates/times. It seems more of a scaled down to-do list app specific for students without notifications. For example, apps such as Astrid Task To-Do List can be used for these features with more capabilities all for free.

Usefulness:
CoursePro can be useful to students with a G1 or Android powered phone.
Ease of Use:
CoursePro is somewhat intuitive (we couldn’t get the “Assignments” category to populate in the “Assignment Type” dropdown for our evaluation). Besides that quark, once you learn its capabilities… operating it becomes simple.
Frequently Used:
Frequency of use is dependant on your schedule of studies and how dedicated you stick to tracking with and using the app.
Interface:
The user interface is OK yet optimized for thumb/finger navigation.
