Your grade (percentage) would be: 439/570 = 77%
The Grading Scale is as follows:
| A+ | 100 | 98 |
| A | 97 | 95 |
| A- | 94 | 93 |
| B+ | 92 | 90 |
| B | 90 | 87 |
| B- | 86 | 84 |
| C+ | 83 | 81 |
| C | 80 | 77 |
| C- | 76 | 74 |
| D+ | 73 | 70 |
| D | 69 | 67 |
| D- | 67 | 65 |
| F | 65 | Below |
So the Grade in the previous example would end up being a "C"
*The key in total point grading scales is to accumulate as many points as possible!!!! On a test, don't leave any questions blank because some or partial credit is always better than no credit! Zeroes will absolutely kill you in this type of grading system
