Can a few B’s reduce my chances of getting into a good school?
Answered

I’m a Year 11(sophomore year) student in Nigeria, with mostly A1’s(about 85-100%) but my grades recently slipped and I got a few B2’s(about 70-80%) this term. At first I wasn’t really worried because my GPA remained the same but I just realized that my school uses a completely different grading system from most schools, and now I don’t know if my scores were good enough in the first place.
