### Current Features
#### Result Rules (Grading Systems):
In the preview version of Educare, admins can add results with only one (default) grading system. Now by adding (v1.2.0+) this feature admin can add his country result system/rules. So, Using this feature you (admin) can add, modify, manage or automatically calculate any type of result based on your country or demand. Eg: India, Bangladesh or US result GPA (CGPA) and calculation methods/rules are different. So, maintaining a defined result using one rule is a bit tricky. The result rule feature solves this problem. If you manage results for Indian students, you can add Indian grading system or rules. Also, you can add Bangladesh or US grading system in the same way. We know, it's a bit difficult. Please share your experience while using these features to improve Educare.
