<p>Does anyone know what numerical value is required for each GPA point? For example, a 100 is a 4.0 and a 90 is a 3.0,but what value is assigned to the grades between 90 and 100?</p>
<p>A is a 4.0, A- is a 3.7, B+ is a 3.3, B is a 3.0, B- is a 2.7, etc., etc. That’s for CAS. I know Peabody gives A+, so their scale might be a little different in the A range. Check their website.</p>
<p>I <em>think</em> it’s up to the professor to decide where they draw the boundary between a grade and its + and - values, but I’m not really sure. The entire area of number to letter conversion is a bit indistinct, especially since a lot of professors will curve up by that +/- if you seriously improve over the semester or you’re right on the edge.</p>
<p>I remember it being x0-x3 a minus, x4-x6 normal, and x7-x9 a plus. Engineering gave A+ grades but it was still only a 4.0</p>
<p>Its up to each professor how they want to distribute grades. It should be posted in the syllabus. They can round and assign different letter grades as they please. </p>
<p>@dtotheustin09 's ranges seem pretty accurate. </p>
<p>Here’s from my current syllabus of mine.</p>
<p>A 94 – 100 (4.0)
A- 90 – 93 (3.7)
B+ 87 – 89 (3.4)
B 83 – 86 (3.0)
B- 80 – 82 (2.7)
C+ 77 – 79 (2.4)
C 73 – 76 (2.0)
C- 70 – 72 (1.7)
D+ 67 – 69 (1.4)
D 63 – 66 (1.0)
D- 60 – 62 (0.7)
F Below 60</p>
<p>Does anyone know how Buckles grades?</p>
<p>He curves his tests. For our third midterm which had a total of 74 points, the A range was 58-69.</p>
<p>@Sophie1295 I meant for overall grades</p>
<p>But thanks though!</p>
<p>The grading varies. But he keeps telling us that there are high and low As, Bs etc.( and that we shouldn’t be happy that we barely made an A when our friend makes a high B!) . Each test/quiz has a different curve. I’m not sure about the final break-up of A/A- etc.</p>
