[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why on earth don't they just switch to a standard -/+ system?[/quote] I think that’s more confusing than the numbers. [/quote] No, it's less confusing. Is a 93 an A- or an A? Listing that would be clearer. I also don't love the stress this puts on perfectionistic kids (I got a 95 but so and so got a 98!) If the grades are both listed as As, kids won't fixate on that kind of thing. [/quote] Playing devil's advocate - One could make a valid case that this is good because there is certainly a huge difference between 100 and 89.5.[/quote]
