Hi everyone, I scored a 79 on a recent chemistry test and I can't figure out exactly what letter grade that translates to. If anyone out here has got any info about this, it would be super helpful.
Hi, grading scales can vary across schools, so your school's specific policy would be the most accurate source. However, a common grading scale in the U.S. goes as follows:
- A: 90-100
- B: 80-89
- C: 70-79
- D: 60-69
- F: Below 60
By this scale, a 79 would be considered a 'C'. But again, make sure to double-check your school's specific grading policies or talk to your teacher for the most accurate answer.
