Rounding up grades

Our school does round up from 0.5 and above. An A is 92% (or 93?) so if you get a 91.5 you still have an A. I'm not sure about the reverse though if you are close to failing, as in 76.5, I think they still do round in that situation.

my school dosent round eather but im ok with that. Im just gonna work harder next semester.

I found out recently that, luckily, my school rounds up. I had an 89.87 average last quarter and they rounded it to a 90, which is a 4.0/A.

I would've been really sad if they didn't round because the next grade down is a 3.3/B.

A B is 3.3? It's always been 3.0 at every school I've attended... My school happens to round, but whether yours does or not should be clearly stated in your syllabi at the beginning of each semester. My school has standard grades for every class, so with rounding, a 92.5 is an A and a 92.49 is a B. A 74.5 is a C and passes the class, and a 74.49 is an F. There are no exceptions or arguments, and we know where we stand all semester since our grades are posted on Blackboard. Our clinicals are also pass/fail, so despite the fact that I've earned 100 on each care plan so far, it doesn't help my grade in class.

Sorry, I meant 87%-89% is a B+, which is a 3.3. Percentages and grade points go down from there so 3.0 = B. There are no minuses, e.g. A- or B-

Our syllabus simply had "90% or above = A" but did not state the rounding policy, other than to specify that 72.99% is a failure and is NOT rounded up to 73%.

my school rounds. then there was a test which was graded on a curve, due to so many ppl failing it. all grades were brought up 7 points. and some ppl still failed!

Our registrar's office also only accepts whole number grades, therefore a 79.5 is rounded up to a 80, a 79.4 is rounded down to a 79. Though depending on the instructor, he/she might sumbit an 80 for a student that recieved 79.4.

Since both rounding up and down occurs, I think its fair.

My school rounds up.
