Can you calculate my grade?

I am halfway through my course and so far the total points I can get is 500. I have 475.

If 500 points = an A+ and 300 points = a D-, what does 475 points equal?

And if there are 1000 points total in a course (100 per week over 10 weeks), can you tell how many points I will have to have to keep it in the A range or at least a B?

This is the grading scale my instructor is using:

A+ 4.0-97-100%

A 4.0 - 94-96%

A- 3.7-91-93%

B+ 3.3-88-90%

B 3.0-84-87%

B- 2.7-81-83%

C+ 2.3-78-80%

C 2.0-74-77%

C- 1.7-71-73%

D+ 1.3-68-70%

D 1.0-64-67%

D- 0.7-60-63%

F-0.0-under 60%

Obviously, this is not a math course I am taking :o)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    475/500 = 0.95 or 95%.

    475 out of 500 equals .95 or 95%.. To keep an A in the class u need to have 455 out of 500 points and to keep a B you need to have at least 405 out of 500 points.. Hope that helped

    95%

    if 1000, you need 900(90%) to get an A, 800 to get a B(80%)
