D plus
Just above failure
D plus is an academic grade indicating below-average but passing performance, falling between D and C minus.
The plus suggests marginally better work than a straight D, though still well short of satisfactory: I scraped by with a D plus in chemistry.
In grading systems where D is the lowest passing mark, D plus offers slim comfort.
