		<description>I just hate how the UC grading system is in general. A &quot;+&quot; or an &quot;-&quot; can really affect the outcome of your own grades and I just hate how much those two symbols can weigh in during the total outcome. Not fair in my opinion but then again what can I do about it? It&#039;s been like that fifty years ago and there&#039;s no sign of it changing anytime soon.</description>

		<description>Pass/No Pass is absurd.  Not enough information for employers and grad schools.  

And how is a med school to determine the undergrad career of an applicant base don P/NP?</description>

		<description>Although I&#039;m not in the US, in the UK we have some subjects which are pass/no-pass, which sounds pretty similar to yours. The rest have letter grades.</description>

		<description>I should have gone to UC Santa Cruz. Would have made school a lot easier not having to worry about letter grades in some of the more difficult classes.</description>

		<description>I had heard of this method of pass/no pass method of grading for UC Santa Cruz, but I was still under the impression that they were using it. It&#039;s interesting that they decided to go back to regular letter grades.</description>
