Grading Final Revised Work
Main content start
While there is no mandated grading conversion table, the following model captures one example of how to convert letter grades to numerics for grading purposes.
A+ = 98-100
A = 94-97
A- = 90-93
B+ = 87-89
B = 84-86
B- = 80-83
C+ = 77-79
C = 74-76
C- = 70-73
D+ = 67-69
D = 64-66
D- = 60-63
F = < 60
