Hiya! Totally confused here. If I receive an 82 in an assignment, what would that be in terms of a letter grade? Much appreciated.
Hello! Typically, the grading scale can differ slightly depending on the school or professor's specific policy, but generally, an 82 would equate to a B-. In a percentage-based grading system, the structure usually goes like this:
- 90-100% = A-/A/A+
- 80-89% = B-/B/B+
- 70-79% = C-/C/C+
- 60-69% = D-/D/D+
- Below 60% = F
So in your case, an 82 percent typically is considered a B- on a standard scale. However, I would advise you to check the syllabus for your specific school or course to confirm the grading scale they're using, as some might adhere to a slightly different scale.
