<p>which is the correct 4.0 scale
this:</p>
<p>100-90 A 4.0
89-80 B 3.0
79-70 C 2.0
69-60 D 1.0
<60 F </p>
<p>OR</p>
<p>A+ (97-100) = 4.0
A (93-96) = 4.0
A- (90-92) = 3.7</p>
<p>B+ (87-89) = 3.3
B (83-86) = 3.0
B- (80-82) = 2.7</p>
<p>C+ (77-79) = 2.3
C (73-76) = 2.0
C- (70-72) = 1.7</p>
<p>D+ (67-69) = 1.3
D (65-66) = 1.0
E/F (below 65) = 0.0</p>
<p>I have a few A minuses and I was wondering if the second scale was the one I should use</p>
<p>I could be wrong, but I think A+ is actually a 4.3 and besides that its the 2nd scale.. but I wouldn't take my word for it.</p>
<p>The second scale is correct, with the correction for A+ being 4.3 as stm noted. However, an A+ is completely up to the digression of the professor. Some may give them out for the 97-100 range, others 98-100, some for 100%, some only give out a handful to the top students, and some don't give them out at all.</p>
<p>is this for your college apps or cornell.. if its cornell its 2nd one with A+ being 4.3 , and the # range isn't definite</p>
<p>Yea an A+ is a 4.33 and an A- is a 3.67</p>
<p>Thats good. I have many more A pluses than A minuses</p>
<p>ixjunitxi: no, Cornell breaks it up as .7 for a minus and .3 for a plus. So A+ 4.3, A- 3.7, B+ 3.3, B- 2.7, C+ 2.3, etc.</p>
<p>^ are you talking about your high school grades?</p>
<p>i can't imagine you have been at cornell and have been receiving letter grades for x number of semesters and not know how it figures into your gpa.</p>
<p>no this is high school. I just wanted to know what the scale was at Cornell.</p>
