letter grades
A through F
Letter grades are evaluations of academic performance using letters of the alphabet, typically A through F in American schools.
A represents excellence, B above average, C average, D below average, and F failure.
Plus and minus signs refine the scale: She got a B+ in chemistry.
The system extends metaphorically to rate anything: I'd give that restaurant a solid A.
