Student Software

I'm looking for a good application that will allow me, as a student, to keep track of my classes. Homework, class work/information, etc. Grade tracking would be a plus.

If all else fails, I guess I'll need to design my own program to do all of this - but I don't really have time to do that right now.

If anyone can suggest any good software title(s), that would be great..

Thanks!

Hmm.. i'm not sure...
the quickest way is probably to create something simple in microsoft access?? You can probably bang something out in a couple of hours that has most of the features you want?

I'm not aware of any pre-packaged software titles

How about using MS Outlook? Includes calendar, task lists, etc. that can be linked to other documents. I use it and sync to my Palm that goes everywhere with me.

Get yourself an inexpensive PDA, like a Palm M-series. It includes software for keeping track of your schedule, due dates, task list. It can be used with Outlook, if you already have it, but the Palm software can do the job for you.

The PDA is great since you can carry it to class. You can probably snag something for under $100. Or, if your parents are shopping for new tires, talk them into getting four Michelins and you can send in for a free PDA.

Well, I guess I'll be writing it myself.

I don't have Microsoft Office, so therefore don't have Outlook or Access. Can't afford it, either. I have Works Suite, which is sufficient for my school work, and I'm not interested in pestering my parents to buy Office.

My parents aren't buying new tires - but I have a PDA - but think that PDA's are useless and a chore to use, at best.

Thanks anyway, guys.
