[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 715317, member: 60724"] SST, I make no claims as to where such a system is (was) used. I was just stating that from my experience (and from my memory when this very topic came up earlier on this site) it is an old-school system, not as widely used today. My old-school experience does in fact come from Northeast, circa 70s and early 80s. I don't think it has to do with a Teachers Union thing, but maybe. Frankly, all other systems not only seem "foreign" to me (of course they would), but they seem "artificial" and even moreso "illogical". There is some kind of simplicity, logic, and beauty in the system I describe, where each letter grade has a decile, and everything 59 or below is failing. Like I said, it's what I am used to, so it seems right, logical, and simple. If I grew up with something else I would probably feel differently. TJR [/QUOTE]
