How do I check my What-if Grades in the Student app on my Android device?
You can view your grades based on What-If scores so that you know how grades will be affected by upcoming or resubmitted assignments.
The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.
Note: What-if grading is only available when a course does not use weighted grading periods. Additionally, what-if scores are not saved in the Canvas Student app.
