I don't know if there's been any post of this kind before now. I'm really curious about this issue. Sometimes I wonder if the grading system used in my school is applicable to all other higher institutions in Nigeria. I'm a student of the Federal University Of Technology Owerri (shout out to my fellow futoites in the building). Formerly, the grading system in my school used to be:

70-100 (A)
60-69 (B)
50-59 (C)
45-49 (D)
40-44 (E)
0-39 (F)

But now, there's been a recent development. The grading system (or marking scheme like some would prefer) now looks this way:


70-100 (A)
60-69 (B)
50-59 (C)
45-49 (D)
0-44 (F)


What's the grading system like in your school? What do you think? I'm curious really.
Please lalasticlacla, I think this deserves front page.
Thanks.
