Dynamics: A+
Surveying: A
Communications: A-
Statics: B+
Thermophysics: B-

My weighted average is somewhere in the low 80s (we just get given a GPA, on a 12 scale, no percentages) and THAT puts ME on the....ready for this????

[Ms Ann Thrope]

way to go, Nixy!

 

[Nixy]

THANK YOU!

For the record...low 80s is an A- here...not a B...

 

[kuulani]

I would give you karma, but I have to spread some around first

 

[PT]

B- ?

WTF?


Ok, Bend over.

 

[Dave]

For the record...low 80s is an A- here...not a B...

That's a pretty lenient grading system. What constitutes an F......0-10?


btw - you go girl

 

[Nixy]

An F is anything below 50

Also, it's just as hard to get an A here as it is there. They grade differently. Anyone who gets an 80 here should beable to go to the USA and get a 90 and viceversa...

 

[MrBishop]

Mucho Kudos for you!!
I KNEW that you could do it !!!

 

[Leslie]

80-100 A
70-79 B
60-69 C
50-59 D
<-50 F

 

[alex]

Let's see if I can remember......

90-100 = A
80-89 = B
70-79 = C
64-69 = D
<64 = F

 

[Rose]

Congrats, Nix!


When I was in high school (ie - school), the school had a seven point grading scale.

In otherwords:
100-93 >> A
92-86 >> B
85-71 >> C
and so forth.

It suck'd ass.

About our junior year they converted to a ten point scale. 90-100 >> a, 80-90 >> b, etc ...


Gosh, but to have a twenty point a? Is that the standard scale, Leslie?

 

[Leslie]

it's the only one I know of

 

[Nixy]

By a 12 point scale I mean...like a 4.0 GPA is perfect at most schools my school feels the need to use 12 as perfect, 0 is fail...it'sconfusing *stares blankly*

 

[Kawaii]

Lucky you. We have four grades;
IG/Icke godkänd (= Failed)
G/Godkänd (=Passed)
VG/Väl godkänd (=Passed with ease)
MVG/Mycket väl godkänd (=Passed with honors)

I want a 100-point grading scale, %-style. Bah.

 

[Rose]

Icke is a good word for failing. *lol*

 

[freako104]

since HS the grading system the schools ive been to have used
90-100 A
80-89 B
70-79 C
60-69 D
and anything below 60 is a d


tho oddly Barton apparently uses the minus and plus as in A- and A+ and so forth

 

[Aunty Em]

Well done Nixy!
