<p>So let’s say the class is using a 10-point scale. Would an 89 typically be a B+ or an A-?</p>

<p>Assuming you’re in high school, a 91 would be an A-. An 89 would be a B+. In North Carolina, for high schools, grades are distributed on a 7 point scale with no plus or minuses. In this case, both the 91 and the 89 would just be Bs. An A is a 93-100</p>
