Doesn't it depend on the class? Also, don't most colleges only do straight letter grades?

On a ten point grading scale it is a normal A and I am pretty sure it would be on that other grading scale that is weird

Idk, it could completely depend of the school, class, or even professor.

That shit is so subjective

pluses and minuses don't exist on college transcripts, so who cares? it's an A

Yes they do, it could be an A- or an AB, or whatever your school uses

even in high school, where we had pluses and minuses, 94 was the cutoff for an A so it still would have been an A

It allows for a better GPA calculation.


A = 4.0
A- = 3.7
etc

Thus a 90 only counts for a 3.7 in your GPA. So there is a difference in points between students who get an 89 and an 80.

94.0 is an A. You're fine.

E is failing.

W is if you drop a class more than one week into the semester but before midterms.

I is if you do not complete the work for a class due to some excusable reason (ie, being hospitalized for three weeks or something). You have until the end of the following semester to complete the work or it turns into an E.

In Canada everything above 80 is in the A range.
