How letter grades are calculated

EMStudio converts percentage scores to letter grades automatically using a built-in scale. The grade appears next to each student's total.

Default grade boundaries

The default scale uses a Plus/Minus system: A+ (97–100%), A (93–96%), A- (90–92%), and so on down to F (0–59%).

Supported grading formats

Currently, EMStudio uses the US-style letter grade scale. Support for custom grade boundaries and alternative grading systems (like 1–6 scales) is planned.
