My high school grading scale was tough:
100%-94% = A
93%-85% = B
84%-75% = C
74%-65% = D
64%-below = F
The good thing about the system was that if you were in honors/AP, the GPA point scale was 1 point higher. An A was 5 points, a B was 4, etc. But, it never really mattered because every college has a different way of computing your GPA based on their own scale.
I was so happy when I got to college and I was back on a "normal" grading scale (where 90% and above is an A!). Then, during my sophomore year, the college adopted the plus/minus system.
