Students, upload your assignments to Gradescope more easily than ever before! If your instructor uses Gradescope for your assignments, you can now upload your submission with our mobile app. After installing and opening the app, login to see your Gradescope courses and assignments. To upload a submission, click on the assignment in the “Not Submitted” tab and either “Select File” to select an existing file from your device or “Scan” all pages of your completed work using your iPhone’s camera. Once you submit your file(s), for templated assignments, you’re all set. For variable-length assignments, “Assign pages” to indicate where your answer for each question appears within your submission. It’s that easy! After confirming, your assignment then moves to the “Submitted” tab. If needed, you can resubmit your assignment until the due date your instructor set has passed. Once it is graded and grades are published for the assignment, it then moves to the “Graded” tab.

About

Glidepath

Features
Read full description

Glidepath is a complete, offline study app for the ASTB-E — the Aviation Selection Test Battery used for Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard aviation and officer programmes. It is built around the six real subtests rather than a generic lesson path, so what you study, what a drill trains and what a mock test scores all line up with the test you are actually sitting. WHAT'S COVERED • Math Skills — 20 lessons: arithmetic, algebra, rates, geometry, probability • Reading Comprehension — 9 lessons and 24 original passages, taught around the distractor patterns the real test uses • Mechanical Comprehension — 15 lessons: force, simple machines, fluids, structures • Aviation & Nautical Information — 18 lessons: aerodynamics, instruments, airfields, rotary wing, naval terminology • Traits & Background — what the trait inventory and biographical sections are, why response validity matters, and how scoring works 508 questions across 67 lessons, every one with a worked explanation. EVERYTHING IS DRAWN Mechanical figures, all six cockpit instruments and the out-the-window horizon are rendered live from the same values their explanations reason about — so the picture and the answer can never disagree. Levers, pulleys, gear trains, hydraulic presses, attitude indicators, altimeters, turn coordinators: all of it drawn, none of it stock art. PERFORMANCE BATTERY DRILLS Six simulations of the skills the Performance Based Measures battery scores: • Stick Tracking — cancel an unpredictable disturbance with a spring-centred stick • Dichotic Listening — different words in each ear at once; answer only for the ear you are told to monitor (headphones required) • Divided Attention — track and answer emergency prompts at the same time • Spatial Orientation — read pitch, bank and track from the windscreen, against the clock • Instrument Scan — read the gauge before the next one appears • Bearing and Turns — direction, magnitude, reciprocals, new headings ADAPTIVE MOCK TEST Question difficulty follows your performance, there is a clock on every section, and you cannot go back and change an answer — the same three things that make the real sitting feel different from a practice book. A score report estimates OAR, AQR, PFAR and FOFAR. BUILT FOR STUDYING • Readiness tracking per subtest, with your weakest units surfaced • Spaced repetition: questions you miss come back on a schedule • A study plan that works out a daily pace from your test date • A reference tab for the night before PRIVACY Your progress, drill records and test history stay on this device. No account, no sign-in, and the app has no network code of its own. Ads are shown on the browsing tabs to keep it free — never inside a lesson, a drill or a mock test. Glidepath is an independent study aid. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or produced by the U.S. Navy, the Department of Defense or any government agency. Score estimates are produced by this app's own model and are not a prediction of your official result.
