I am just curious how the majority of teachers grade. This semester most of mine wont round your grade at all but I got a 89.76% in my Micro class and I am hoping she will round up but I have not heard back. I hate being so close to an A and not getting it lol.

Most of my professors round up or down. I've never had a professor not round up or down with 89's. As long as it was closer to 90 than to 89.

Never heard of a professor round a grade...not in college at least.

Some did. Some did not. Most had their grading policies including rounding policy in their syllabus.

All of my teachers for pre-req classes would round up if needed. My nursing school does not round up no matter what.

Most of my pre-req teachers have. My chem Prof would round up if you didn't miss many lectures.

Depends on the professors. Most of mine did though.
