<p>Just curious.. do you guys get percentages as your final grades or are they just letter grades? My school does percentages, so basically every point counts...</p>
<p>Here are mine then...

<p>Term GPA: 4.0
Year GPA: 3.87
Cumulative GPA: 3.93 (We don't weight. We have 20 valedictorians. Boo.)</p>
<p>No more B's and I can get a 3.97...is it sad that I calculated that?</p>
<p>Noel, in my school we don't convert grades to letters- our grades for the year are percentages. We then convert them to a GPA scale:
ex.
98-100=4.0
96-97=3.9
94-95=3.8
92-93=3.7
...and so on.
I think the percentage system is better, b/c then people don't feel like beating up their teachers when they get an 89.4% and the teacher doesn't give them a 90. It's just one point then, instead of a whole letter grade.</p>

<p>Look at that- Student A has an average SIX POINTS HIGHER than Student B but a lower GPA. All I can say is: that is gaaaaay. I can't believe that some schools are allowed to be so unfair. Lol I'm glad my school isn't.</p>
<p>I can't believe you guys have GPA's of 5.25!!! That is so unfair!!! My school doesn't weight classes the highest that you can get at my school is a 4.3! (an A+ is worth 4.3 points). I so wish I we had weighted grades b/c I take all honors and AP's.</p>

<p>Actually; this is more than fair. Because in the long run, kids that go by the 'percentage' can get a 80% and still average out a 90% overall if they get 100% in a different class. Of course; your students a and b are theoretical and so are mine. But trust me; GPA's CAN be Better!</p>
