<p>sorry to be off topic, but since when are 88 and 89%s A's? Maybe this is what is screwing up the college system....students getting As when they should be receiving B's</p>

<p>If it's an AP class, many of the courses at our school have the overall grade curved instead of individual tests being curved.</p>

<p>^ And what problem are you refferring to exactly?</p>

<p>By the way, i think if you keep things up you'll have a good chance at SLO, but what major are you think of?</p>

<p>Are you international btw? B/c that may change some things for you...</p>
