Every year Quebec students finish their CEGEP degrees with no particular University studies in mind. Additionally many CEGEP students struggle to understand and gauge their RScores and the effect that their RScore has on their academic future. TestMyRScore was built to help CEGEP students with these problems.
TestMyRScore provides students with an RScore Calculator as well as a University Requirements Calculator. The RScore Calculator can be used by students to give themselves a rough estimate of their RScore based on their current grades. Additionally, the University Requirements Calculator provides students with a list of all programs, from select Universities (currently Concordia and McGill), in which they meet the minimum requirements of admission based on the previous academic year.
The majority of the application is written in JavaScript, using several frameworks such as React and TypeScript. The breakdown of technologies:
The following Front End technologies are being utilized:
- React
- MaterialUI
- CSS
- HTML
There is currently no dedicated Back End. It is not necessary at this point in time, although there are possibilities of building one using ExpressJS, NodeJS, Mongoose and MongoDB in the future.
Although TestMyRScore is not entirely complete, you can view the latest source code in this repository and the latest live version at testmyrscore.com.
