A=93-100
B=86-92
C=77-85
D=70-76
F=69 and below

It depended on the class, but each teacher could use whatever scale they wished. I had classes with this scale from elementary school through med school. One teacher told me, that it didn't matter what the scale was. It mattered who the teacher was. You'd get a B if you deserved a B no matter the scale.

Day two the girls visited all Five houses again to get to know them better. I waited all day, moping around, eating a half bag of Pull N Peel Twizzlers. I must have checked my phone a hundred times! I went in late for work but was not very productive. I couldn't believe I had become so obsessed with this! I got a text from Gina after 7pm, she was settling in well, missed us but was keeping busy. She had to pick the four houses she'd like to return to for Philanthropy day. She chose :
Linguini
Lasagna
Spaghetti
Ziti
I talked to her on Day three early in the morning. It was our first Skype session ( boy did I look scary at 7 am) . She said she did not know where or if she'd be invited back to until later and that her phone would be given up. "Oh, ok. Have fun and keep an open mind. Keep me updated " I said nonchalantly. What I was thinking was "Good grief I 've got twelve hours of hell ahead of me. Please God, let her have at least one House on her callback list!". Luckily that evening Gina texted that she had two houses on her list.
Linguini and Lasagna! She was so happy! They were her top two picks and she was honored they wanted her back. She said she couldn't understand why some girls complained that they didn't get in certain houses even with a full card. She was grateful t have the two super houses still on hers. She was worried that she had an awkward moment at one house and hoped she didn't "look goofy". We had a great conversation and talked about what to expect next. I think it was therapeutic for both of us. I felt like my girl was surrounded by a kind group of young women and that in my heart it was going to be Ok . More soon, gotta feed my hungry family!!
