I always heard that Virginia schools were very hard on their students. I didn't think so, but of course i never compared my school system to other ones. Here is the grading scale for Halifax County, Virginia.
94-100 A
86-93 B
78-85 C
70-77 D
69 or below F
Is this grading scale tougher than most? If so, what is the grading scale that you are used to?

It seems that you're on a 6-8 point scale. My cousin uses a 7 point scale, but she has A+ & A- in between, but I think it's harsh to say 93 is a B. My scale goes like this...
97-100: A+
92-96: A
90-91: A-
87-89: B+
82-86: B
80-81: B-
77-79: C+
72-76: C
70-71: C-
69: D+
67-68: D
66: D-
0-65: U (which is an F, basically)

Depending on the teacher and difficulty of the course,
San Diego's most common scale is ususally in this area:
90 - 100 A
80 - 90 B
70 - 80 C
60 - 70 D
- 60 F

It isn't too much off of the standard scale. Usually 65 is the cut off and 90-100 is an A, but it depends on how the teacher assigns value to the work.

Many schools are using such a standard, but I was used to:
100-90 A
89-80 B
79-70 C
69-60 D
59-0 F

I think that is a bit tough!
In my high school 50 was a C.
In college 50 was around a D/E.
If you think about it, getting a mark of 50, when out of 100, you got half of the questions right, so saying 69 or below is an F (or a fail) is a little harsh.

In my public schools it was
A- 93-100
B- 85-92
C- 77-84
D- 70-76
F- 69 and below.
When I moved to privates school it was
A- 90-100
B- 80-89
C- 70-79
D- 65- 69
F- below 65
This is the scale most colleges use.

Yea, it seems like in the past 10 years or so a lot of schools have been using your grading system.
