I got a 75% in Bio this term! Thanks be to God!

Sure, 75 isn't a good mark, but for me in Bio, it's worth a 100! I mean, I failed the last Bio test badly, and failed practically every quiz.

IB scales are working to my advantage, methinks. My 58% on the Math test gets translated into roughly 73%.

Anyways. My relief/happiness is over. Sorry.

Is that a C or something weighted to a higher grade?

Just a bit confused, no offense meant either way.

My school doesn't use letter codes. They just give a raw percentage. Teachers also give you a mark "excellent, good, satisfactory, needs improvement" on stuff like punctuality, team work, organization. They also need to select 3 comments from a list of pre-made comments (that often make no sense, ironically. For example, in Tech last year, I got a "Needs to improve manual work skills" wtflol.)

Then there's the whole IB coding, from a 1 to a 7. 4 is needed to pass. The percentage range assigned to each value 1-7 changes from assignment to assignment based on the class average. Yeah, IB is a bunch of lousy bureaucrats who love to make stupid rules.
