If you were in high school, what grade would be quotgoodquot

So, if you were back in high school (or forwarded into) what grades would you consider to be a good grade?
For me, I would say anything above an 85% is a good grade.

When I was a junior in high school (grade 9) 65-78 was good for me. Until you're like grade 11-12, 79-89+ should be what you should be reaching college marks are calculated for you 3rd and last year

Grades are made up. They don't matter.
I used to get all straight A's until middle school, where I still got mostly A's, a few B's, and one C. Then in high school I had a 3.4 freshman year, and it went downhill from there. Now I'm okay with getting a C on a test in my hard classes, and having a B in my hard classes. Unfortunately I tend to get B's in my easy classes because I don't care about them.

90% = plz stay this way
80% = this is okay, i guess
70% = o god i hope this doesnt get worse

Back in high school, an A (93%+) was the norm for me and an A- (90-93%) was acceptable. I actually cried when I got something below 90% for the first time.

My standards have lowered since starting university.

For ap classes, B's were okay depending on the subject, ap euro, chem, or english but A's were the only good grade for calc, or us history. Regular classes are just A"s since they're not difficult at all.

94 was good for me.

Less than 92 made me feel like crying.

assignments that weight heavily on my overall mark I always hope for an 80+, if the assignment isint worth much a 70+ will do just fine.

80+ was good, 75-79 was okay, 65-75 was not okay, and anything below 65 was bad.

Back then, anything passing was considered good to me.

Now, anything above 80% is considered good

I would be slightly disappointed with an 80, but happy with anything 90 or above. Now that i'm in college, I'll take an 80 haha (especially in my bio class where the average midterm is like 40)

Usually aimed for 100s. Would be stupid not to, so around 95-ish would be good.
In college, it's whatever the mean would be. So around 60~70 I guess.

Imo, 90+ is acceptable, 92+ is good, and 94+ is great

depends if your school grades you by test marks, or if its divided with homework, quizes, and tests.

If its dividied with homework and quizes, than its ez mode. Therefore you should get 90.
If its 90% graded by tests, than 80 is considered good

I was in full IB so I considered 85+ to be good. If I was in the regular high school curriculum it would be 90+.
Now in university I consider 80+ to be good.
