College Discussion - View Single Post - what if you take more than 12 credits per semester?

For what it's worth, FFX county's grading scale:

A=100-94
B+=93-90
B=84-89
C=83-80

I'm not sure what it is near the bottom but I know this much lol.

Also, IhateCR, I think the school you go to also determines how easy it is to get an A. At the school I go to, AP teachers try to treat grades like a college course. As a result, most of my class grades consist only of quizzes, tests, papers, and the occasional project/presentation.(Which, I do believe, is similar to college grading.) They insist that since AP=intro college course, we should be graded like college students. I do have one teacher who gives the boosting homework grade but that's it. In my calc class, I had a 93.46 and she wouldn't round it. (I argued that it did round [because it totally does], because the 6 rounded the 4 up to a 5 which would make the grade a 93.5 which would round the whole thing up to a 94. when i told her that, she gave me a nasty look.) Anyway, it may have to do more with the school than the whole county. Just thought I would bring that up.
