Just because the grade percentage needed is lower for them, doesn't mean you have more of a challenge..
You could need 93-100% for an A doing derp work, while they could need 90-100% doing challenging stuff.
I really don't think high school is that much different than middle school class-wise/work wise etc. but then again I was always in the pre-ap classes then just switched to AP classes... Iono if you do your work high school is really easy haha.

The grading system has always been the same since I was in elementary school. Its just the work that is getting tougher, which I don't really mind that much. Its just the grading system that bothers me.

Lol yeah, I am only going to school and making good decisions cause I wanna be successful, I wanna make money. I don't wanna live on the streets! LOL. I am doing whatever it takes to get my dream career. Too bad I have to wait for like 5 more years for grad school.
The college grading system has always been like that for me throughout elementary and high school. ^_^ maybe its different in some states
Infamous Joe is you.
It's kind of annoying knowing some people are going to get a 4.0 for a 90 while I'm going to get a like 3.75. ;~;

My schools were like that. HOWEVER, a lot of time college professors set up their own grading scale. In the end, it's based on the letter grade you receive because GPA isn't based on percentage
Emily...you're only in 8th grade. You really shouldn't be judging how challenging college is right now lol.
