LSU implements plus/minus grading for Fall 2015

People will bitch but IMO, plus/minus is a better system. It offers a better representation & more precisely pinpoints how a student did in a class

Is this the same as different GPA points for each letter grade?

No employer has ever asked for my transcript.

You're right. People will still be pissed.

Yes. If you make an A- in a class, it's a 3.7 or something like that. Not a 4.0.

Glad I got out before this nonsense. I was the king of 79.5's.

I really need to graduate.

This will help me a lot.

Yeah I think you're right.
I just don't think a 3.0 and 3.9 should be weighted the same , 2.0 and 2.9, etc

It'd help you then
79.5's wouldn't count as a 2.0 anymore; it'd count as 2.7
Eta: I misread your post, I thought you said it would hurt you

B+ = 3.2 (I think)
B = 3.0
B- = 2.7 (I think)

So what does an A constitute? And how does an A plus work?
