Date: May 7th, 2013 12:47 AM Author: Crystalline Razzle-dazzle Area Immigrant Did you have +'s and -'s?
Or just A, B, C, D, F? What was the scale?
I've also heard of schools where your class averages are all combined into one number.
When I was in HS, it was just A thru F, 90-100 on down. Semesters broken into two quarters. Each quarter weighted 40% and a final weighted 20%. |

Date: May 7th, 2013 12:52 AM Author: Crystalline Razzle-dazzle Area Immigrant i heard they changed mine to have +/-. Seems to make more sense, and makes an 88 hurt less, but straight A-F seems credited for non-strivers. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2249409&forum_id=2#23149045) |

all ur subjects were combined into a single university addmission index score (also out of 100 but curved) which determined what university courses you could apply to |

Add .5 for honors Add 1 for AP
No +/- which made it super easy to coast. 89.5% was as good as 100%. |

Shit was annoying, I think I always had like a 95 average but there were faggots who strove their way to like 100s, which you needed to seriously care about to get.
