D+
Just above failing
D+ is a grade indicating slightly below-average performance, typically the lowest passing mark before failure.
In American education, it sits between D and C-, suggesting minimal competency: I scraped by with a D+ in chemistry.
The plus softens the blow slightly but still signals struggle.
