In most of the us A is 100 to 93, A- is 92 to 90, B+ is 89 to 87, B is 86 to 83, B- is 83 to 80, C+ is 79 to 77, C is 76 to 73, C- is 72 to 70, D+ is 69 to 67, D is 66 to 63, D- is 62 to 60, F is below 60. Most of the variation I've seen is with Ds and Fs.

Wait, really? That's so difficult to remember.

For me it was

A: 100-90 B: 89-80 C: 79-70 D: 69-60 F: 60 or below

In my school

  80-85 is A-
  85-90 is A
  90-100 is A+

  77-80 - B+
  73-77 - B
  70-72 - B-
as you know adding the symbol for plus in hubski makes it bold between the two pluses except for aerowid who made the pluses work somehow... Thanks aerowid

Backslashes

+ like this?

Wait a sec. Isn't / a backslash and \ a forwardslash?

That sounds awesome, but I bet it's a big deal to strict parents to still be in the 90-100 range.

thanks for the formatting tips, by the way

One of my professors claimed that this (or at least something like this) is how must of the world doors grade. The "metric grade", if you will.

I guess "most of the us" is broader than I can really speak to, but in California that was true at every school I attended.

Did you go to other school districts? I can't speak past my state, but I think most school districts (at least all the ones I've been to) did it this way. It could just be a states thing?
