From High School to University?

How do the grades change in percentages?From High School to University?
In my university the grading scale is:

93-100 = A

87.5 = AB

82=B

76.5=BC

71=C

65.5=CD

60=D

%26lt;60=F



However I find that in most state schools %26gt;90 is an AFrom High School to University?
Same as high school, for the most part like the person said above, but also grades tend to be curved in larger state universities. That means, if the average grade in the class is a 60%, the professor will usually curve all the grades, so the average is a 70% or 75%. If you were getting a B in this class, your grade would probably then be an A after the curve.
Typically, it's the same thing: A = 90-100, B=80-89, etc. Some classes will have different grading scales, and they will have this information in the syllabus you get on the first day of class.
