  Oh, I think I can barely get a B if I get ~95% on everything else for the semester, NO PROBLEM FOR A HIGHLY MOTIVATED INDIVIDUAL LIKE MYSELF.

This is true, I'm not poor. But the flatting market here has gone nuts since the earthquake displaced so many people.

^I forgot but the highest on the scale is 4.

I just watched that one short film with Die Antwoord in it.

    3.0 out of 4, which corresponds to roughly 80-90% average in each class itself, depending on the grading scale.  2.0 is "passing" and is 70-80%, but that's really lame for liberal arts classes (a lot of math/science classes are intended to be punishment for your sins, so a 2.0 isn't as bad for the, but it still sucks). Unfortunately for Kos and myself, 3.0 is pretty mediocre too because of grade inflation.

Oh, I know my undergrad average was 78% (not bad considering I got a C in a social history paper which SUCKED BALLS) and that got me into postgrad. But the actual % is almost irrelevant because very few people average 85-90%+ anyway over that many papers.

Yeah, America is a lot more cut-throat than that, you kind of suck if you don't have at least a 3.5. Or our standards are lower to get that high of a percentage, I don't know. Buh buh boo.

Well, I really I have no clue about the weighting of the marks, so it's a pointless observation really.
