Summa Cum Laude at my school is 3.9+

*looks at her poor 3.822* I guess I'll just have to be happy with Magna Cum Laude (3.75+)

Aw, darn. Barely missed it.

*hugs*

At least Magna Cum Laude isn't something like 3.0+? Because that would've really sucked. And I'm sure it's still a very good grade *no idea about other systems, no*

Total possible is a 4. 3.8 is very good.
*hugs back*
I'd have no idea about your system either. XD

Ah, Edinburgh (and all of Britain, I think) marks are easy up to a point - marks are out of 100. It's the part where everything above 40 is a pass, above 70 is an A and anything above 85 almost impossible to achieve that makes me go "wut?" Our marking scheme is crazy.

But if 4 is perfect - 3.8 is excellent :D

(Our grades in school also went from 1.0 to 4.0, with 1.0 the best - I got 1.3. I guess you got 0.1 more than me then?)
