    Hi,
    Maybe this should be stickied if someone has the answer, coz I hear people asking this a lot in the college.

    What are the percentage equivalents of letter grades?

    The reason I ask is coz I got a B- in an exam, where I was expecting a lot more. I'm not sure if a B- is roughly 60% or 80%.

    Can anyone clarify?
    Thanks.

    100-80%= A 4.0
    70-80 = B+ 3.5
    60-70 = B 3.0
    55-60 = B- 2.75
    50-55 = C+ 2.5
    40-50 = C 2.0
    35-40 = D 1.5


    GPA
    * Pass is 2.0 - 2.49
    * 2:2 is 2.5 - 2.99
    * 2:1 is 3.0 - 3.24
    * 1:1 is 3.25 & up
