Hey, does anyone know what letter grade a 13/15 score would turn into? I have some assignments graded like this, and would love to get a sense of how they impact my overall score. Thanks!
A 13/15 translates to about 87%, which generally corresponds to a B or B+ in most US grading scales. However, remember that the exact equivalence can vary between different classes, schools, or even countries if you're studying outside the US. You may want to directly check your particular class's grading scale to know the precise translation. Some classes could have a more generous curve (for example, an 87% could be an A-) while others might be stricter.
Also, keep in mind that while this is a good grade, it's not just about individual assignment grades. Your overall grade is a cumulative measure of all components of your grade: quizzes, tests, participation, and other assignments. Even if this 13/15 is a B or B+, if you have high scores in other areas, your overall grade could still be very strong.
So while a 13/15 equates to a solid grade, the ultimate impact on your overall score depends on how your individual grades come together. Keep up the hard work!
