<p>At my tier 2 public universty, a 4.0 is 98% or above. </p>
<p>How about yours?</p>
<p>Wow, that’s nuts.</p>
<p>At my school, a 4 is just an A, so if your GPA is 4.0, it means you have never gotten a total class grade other than an A. </p>
<p>An A is a class is GENERALLY just a 90% or higher, but some people use an arbitrary scale where they don’t average things or use round numbers.</p>
<p>At Sonoma State you have to get an A. Anything lower (A-) isn’t a 4.0 anymore.</p>
<p>If memory serves most classes at my school had a 93% cut off for an A, but I don’t think all A’s were a 4.0… not sure, I got mostly B’s! ;)</p>
<p>An A, which is usually 90-100</p>
<p>A solid A.</p>
<p>An A.</p>
<p>We do:
A 4.0
B+ 3.5
B 3.0
C+ 2.5
C 2.0
D+ 1.5
D 1
F 0</p>
<p>Sometimes it’s an 80%, other time it’s a 93%. Totally depends on the professor.</p>
<p>An A at W&M is 93+. An A- is 90-92. An A- is a 3.7, so getting below a 93 loses you the 4.0.</p>
<p>We don’t give letter grades, only numbers like 4.0, 3.5, etc. We don’t have university wide cut offs, it varies by teacher and department.</p>
<p>Where do you go that’s 98% for a 4.0?</p>
<p>Here at UCONN, 93 and over is an A or a 4.0.</p>
<p>Very interesting! There seems to be some varying divides between schools and their professors. </p>
<p>And I go to a mid-sized public school in Michigan called Oakland University. I don’t think it’s well-known nation-wide, (it’s just over 50 years old) and I honestly don’t know why they’re so tough. You’d think they’d have more grade inflation to look smarter or something!</p>
<p>For my school:
A: 4.0, A-: 3.7, B+: 3.3, B: 3.0, B-: 2.7, C+: 2.3, C: 2.0, C-: 1.7, D+: 1.3, D: 1.0, D-:0.7, F: 0.0</p>
<p>What an A is in terms of numerical points is up to each professor.</p>
<p>A=4.0
A-=3.7
so there’s no A+…</p>
<p>GW also only gives 4s for 98% and above. </p>
<p>I’m beyond frustrated right now because my German grade for this semester is a 97.83 and my French grade is a 97.74. Neither of those are 4s, which is pretty ridiculous considering how hard I had to work for them.</p>
<p>This and I hate it! I went to a school where there were no ± grades and my gpa was higher…</p>
<p>In general, a 95 or higher is an A (4.0), and a 90-94 is an A- (3.7). A+ grades are not assigned.</p>
<p>Oh you go to OU? An A there is between 3.6 and 4.0. Is the 98+ for a 4.0 universal? That seems odd considering I know a lot of people there with perfect or close to perfect 4.0s every semester. I thought they were kind of known for major grade inflation.</p>
<p>Generally, an A is a 93-96. 97 and above is an A+ (A and A+ are considered 4.0). A- is a 90-92 and is considered a 3.84.
One of my professors regarded an A+ as 96 and above; another professor didn’t give out pluses or minuses, thus making an A 90 and above (4.0), and a B 80-89 (3.0).</p>
<p>A+ 4.00
A 4.00
A- 3.84
B+ 3.33
B 3.00
B- 2.67
C+ 2.33
C 2.00
C- 1.67
D+ 1.33
D 1.00
F 0.00</p>
<p>At NYU it goes like follows at all schools. </p>
<p>At the Stern school, however, most courses have graded distribution, which means letter grades are not give on percentage score earned but only so many As (eg. 25-35% As) and so many Bs (eg. 50-70% Bs) and the rest of the class 5-15% will be given Cs.</p>
<p>A 4.0
A- 3.7
B+3.3
B 3.0
B- 2.7
C+2.3
C 2.0
C- 1.7
D+1.3
D 1.0
F 0</p>
<p>All A+'s at my school would be a 4.0 fersure
I think all A/A-'s would be a 3.9/3.8
meh</p>
