It's actually amazing how I can predict this exceedingly well just from watching students grades compared to the average.

Did a test with it using my website: https://easy-a.net

I basically can predict students future semester grades, hours spent and what not.

Same here, based on time on campus, time in labs/study areas I am able to predict pretty accurately who will succeed. Of course there are always outliers.
