Grades measure student academic performance. While students are often grouped based on their grades, the diversity of student background can also influence their scholarly activities. Our project investigates the different factors that can influence student grades. Using data visualization techniques and regression analysis, we find that absences and a presence of ADD/ ADHD have a negative impact on deter1nining a student's grade while homework hours have a positive impact.
