We seem compared to others here to have it easier,but we were told to keep our As at the door, and the class average should be less then a 80 or the test way too easy.
C 69.5-79.4
B 79.5-89.4
A 89.5-100
I know there are + and -, but don't know exactly
Anything less then a 69.5 is failing.

That is an usual grading system for a nursing school, usually the cut off is a C or B. For us it is a C, anything under 75 and we fail the class. At some schools anything under 80% is failing. Here is our scale
A= 92 – 100%
B= 83 – 91.99%
C= 75 – 82.99 %
D= 70-74.99%
F= 0-69.99%

My school uses the following grading system:
92.5-100 = A
83.5-92.4 = B
74.5-83.4 = C
It's tough for me! But I can't imagine some other schools with much higher requirements!

Ours is similar, but they do round, so you can get 74.5 and get a C, 83.5 for a B and 92.5 for an A. We don't have + or - either. it is what it is.

Failing was anything lower than 78 in our program.

Our points are calculated out to a grade point average, not percentage so I'm never really sure if at 90% I have an A or not, I just know I got a 3.3 for the quarter but under 75% is failing which they calculate at a 2.0.

Same thing where I graduated from in all classes except Dosage Calc in which anything below 90 was failing.
