In response to my "Grades Survey", I was wondering how the grading scale your school uses works. As I go to a public school, my scale is very simple. It goes as follows:

A+ 100-96.5
A 96.49-92.5
A- 92.49-89.5
B+ 89.49-86.5
B 86.49-82.5
B- 82.49-79.5
C+ 79.49-76.5
C 76.49-72.5
C- 72.49-69.5
D+ 69.49-66.5
D 66.49-62.5
D- 62.49-59.5
F <59.49
I Incomplete
D Dropped
E Exempt

I envy a lot of people here when I see talk about this. My school district is pretty strict, unfortunately :(

93-100 = A
85-92 = B
77-84 = C
70-76 = D
Below 70 = F

In elementary school, I used to have that same scale. I got all A's though, but I loathed that grading scale.

A 100-90
B 89-80
C 79-70
D 69-60
F 59 and below

Mine's pretty much like this, I think.

We just use 0 to 10, like a percentage divides by 10

A 92.5+
B 82.5 - 92.4
C 72.5 - 82.4
D 62.5 - 72.4
F 62.4 and lower

This was my scale for my first three years of high school and I actually liked it a lot better than the scale I had my senior year which was the simple 90-100, 80-89, etc. I always felt cheap when I got a 91% A.

We just go 0-100. Anything below 75 is considered a fail (which is cruel IMO imagine it means when you got 80 you passed by the skin of your teeth instead of passing with flying colors)

What's written down in the handbook:
>100 = A+ (only applicable to some teachers)
100-90 = A/A-
89-80 = B+/B/B-
79-70 = C+/C/C-
69-60 = D+/D/D-
59 and below = Fail

How it actually feels (due to common opinion at my school):
>100 = A+
100-90 = B
89-80 = C-
79-70 = F
69 and below = have fun in community college or flipping burgers at McDonalds.

I think it was
A: 80+
B: 70-79
C: 60-69
D: 50-59
E: 40-49

And then for an A* you had to get above 90 in A2 modules and an A overall then it would equal an A*.

At university it works that
First: 70+
2:1 : 60-69
2:2 : 50-59
Third: 40-49
Anything else is a fail.
