Direct Answer / Quick Summary
How to extract grading weights from a syllabus?
Manually reading through a 20-page syllabus to find the 'Grading' section is a common student pain point. The Studyflow Syllabus Parser uses text layer extraction and RegEx pattern matching to identify phrases like 'Final Exam 40%' or 'Midterm 20%'. By automating this extraction locally on your device, we help you quickly understand your 'grade cushion' and exam requirements without compromising your academic privacy. This extracted data can be directly used in our Final Grade Calculator to predict your final course outcome.

Frequently asked questions
How does the syllabus parser work?
Our tool uses optical character recognition (OCR) and text extraction to read your syllabus PDF locally in your browser. It then uses pattern matching to identify keywords like 'Midterm', 'Final Exam', 'Assignments', and their corresponding percentage weights.
Is my syllabus uploaded to a server?
No. Your syllabus never leaves your device. All processing happens 100% locally in your web browser, ensuring total privacy.
What if the parser misses some weights?
The parser is currently in Beta and works best with clearly formatted text. If it misses a weight, you can manually enter it into our Final Grade Calculator.
