Anyone know any good student software? (Other than 4.0 Student which has had bad reviews by some people on here)

Software that has applications/uses for students such as grade tracking, assignment tracking, schedule, expenses, stuff like that all in one and in a easy to use interface

I really like 4.0 Student ... I think it works fine for me (Junior in High School) .... I dunno what people could find wrong with it, but maybe I should also try The Dog Ate it ...

for those who've used it, do you find that student software is worth the money? through 2 years at university, i've been using a few spreadsheets, ms money, and outlook to keep going, and it seems to be alright so far...

4.0 Student is too tedious and of so little help I don't know why anyone would use it.
I spent two weeks futzing around with it, only to realize it had way limited usefulness. Not much better than writing stuff down in Outlook in my opinion.
Wouldn't have minded having something like The Dog Ate It while I was in school....and it was only a few years ago!!! Of course, I wouldn't have minded having my Ax while I was in school period!!
All I had was my old P-II 233 system. I don't know how I managed to get through!!! :D

I've used 4.0Student for two quarters straight, and I love it. Other than the weird default grading policy (90% is a B+?!), which you can change by hand, it's pretty accurate. It's basically a replacement for your assignment notebook, syllabus, and grade tracker.
is there a way to keep multiple task lists on my axim? as a student, one of the biggest problems i have is working with just one task list. if i could keep multiple ones, eg one for each course and one for other to-dos, it would be very, very helpful.
if this features isn't on ppc, do any of you know of a program that adds just this? it's a small thing, and i don't know if it warrants having to buy a whole student suite.
