Hey everyone! I'm a bit confused about how numerical grades align with letter grades, like 'A,' 'B,' etc. I got an 83 in one of my classes; can someone help me understand which letter grade it corresponds to?
Hey there! The grading system can sometimes differ between schools and even individual instructors, but generally, an 83 is considered a 'B' letter grade. Typically, letter grade scales follow a structure like this:
A: 90-100
B: 80-89
C: 70-79
D: 60-69
F: 0-59
It's important to check with your school's specific grading policy as they may have variations or use different grading scales. Some schools use a plus/minus system, where an 83 might be a B- instead of a straight B, for example.
If you still have questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out to your teacher; they'll be able to provide the most accurate information on how they assign letter grades in their course.
