# Who needs Excel? Managing your students qualifications with org-table

In this talk I will explain how to use org-table to review and calculate the qualifications of the students (but the used techniques are general). I will show how to use several tables, one for each partial exam, using weights for create the final table. I also use summarize table with org-aggregate for a general view of results, and export the qualification to PDF. All the process with Emacs!
I’ll demonstrate some functionality I use for:
- Formula for calculate the qualification using weights, that can be easily updated.
- Summarize tables with org-aggregate (<https://github.com/tbanel/orgaggregate>).
- Create a final table making reference to tables in different files.
For several years, I have been using that workflow, and I consider it is very natural with many advantages, like writing the reasons/feedback in the same file with the qualifications, or to be able to use a version control.
