are you serious???
so are you saying it's basically pointless aiming for higher than 85 for a subject since 85 and 99 will both counts as a numerical value of '7'.. towards the calculation of your GPA..
please confirm, since what your saying sounds really,, really unfair.
eg. A got 75, 75, 75 for 3 subjects,
and B got 84,84, 74 for the same 3 subjects. ... Are you saying that A will have a higher GPA? (since A will have three 6's while B will only have two 6's and one 5)
surely that is unjust.
Sorry for being annoying but where do people go to find this kind of stuff out?
