Yeah this really isn't asking for help but its just ranting lol.
Well a few years ago my school decided to change the grading scale and this is the bs we got.
A 100.00 94.50
A- 94.49 92.50
B+ 92.49 90.50
B 90.49 86.50
B- 86.49 84.50
C+ 84.49 82.50
C 82.49 78.50
C- 78.49 76.50
D+ 76.49 74.50
D 74.49 71.50
D- 71.49 69.50
F 69.49 0.00

Well I just got my midterms and I got 3 A's, 3 C's and an F. They think this is helping for College but its not, its making it harder for us. The low grades just gets me down and makes me want to give up because I'm not much of a hard worker lol and it will be hard to keep those grades high. Btw I'm a Sophomore.

Ghettoretta SON best check yo self
It does put more pressure on you but it'll make you a harder worker for the future. If your not a harder worker now you'll have issues junior year trust me I know alot of people who slack now in my junior class and I can tell they are not going anywhere after HS.

That's just insane. . .

Wow. . .I'm almost speechless. . .

It will make you a harder worker, but still, if your collage doesn't use the same scale, then I don't think it would help uch. . .you'd just relaxe after High School. . .

But still. . .wow. . .

I'm not familiar with America's school system,but it looks pretty strict. o_O

But even if you get low grades,you just have to give it your best the next time.Don't let them encourage you,I'm not a hard worker either but someday it will pay off when you're just giving it your best shot at everything you're doing.

That's what I think.

Your school is really dumb. I mean, A's becoming B's and B's becoming C's?????! That's just wrong....
But like everyone else has said, I am sure that this will definitely get you to work harder, even though I think that it is really unfair. Just try your best and study hard (even though it's boring) and you'll do fine. Getting worked up about it won't change the final outcome of the grade, just what letter your idiot administration decides to call it.

My school in Taiwan uses the same scale. My average is still an A, not to boasting or anything. <_<

My old school in the US has a failure of 59. o_O
