Is a 91 still an A?

So, I gotta question here. I just got a 91 on my most recent test, and isn't sure if it's considered an A or an A-. How does your school handle grades like these?

While many schools do consider a 91 to be an A-, this can vary depending on the specific grading scale used by your school. Some educational institutions use a 10-point grading scale (where anything between 90 and 100 is considered an A), while others might use a 7-point scale (where an A- might start at 93).

It's best to consult your school's grading policy or even ask your teacher to clarify how grades are calculated in their specific class. That way, you can have a better understanding of exactly where you stand according to the grading scale used at your school.

Take it from me, this is a common question students have and it's always important to remember that regardless of the grade letter you received, a 91 is still a strong score that shows you are mastering the material! Keep up the excellent work.
