3 stars is a good rating, dummy. If you inflate your ratings, they don't mean anything. There are way too many 5 star ratings.

60% isn't a D-. Well at least not here. Let me guess, America has institutionalized retarded scoring?

A 3 star restaurant isn't a D-. You are making the mistake of thinking that your school rating system acts as some universal scale for all other rating systems.

Two people have already said it, but rating systems aren't characterized by their direct mathematical outputs, and those outputs (usually) don't mean what they do in the American educational system. In the 4-star movie rating system, 2.5/4 means it was alright; however, 2.5/4 = 62.5% = D.

60% is 5 on 1-7 scale on IB

>> No.4156046

>>4156043
>>4155994 never did IB; he was too busy arguing that people 50% of the way across the bell curve should be farther to the left because 50% = F
