Congrats on the grades! Does your school do the grading thing where an A- is worth less than a 4.0 in your GPA?

YES!

Omg drives me nuts and I think is very unfair.

My undergrad school did not do that so coming here was kind of a rude awakening.

My friend's school did that for undergrad, and it seems like a pretty rotten deal. She said professors would do it randomly a lot of the time, giving an A- if they didn't really like the student but they had still technically earned something in the A range.

I don't know. It seems to me like it would be a problem when applying for a school or job or internship if they looked at your GPA, and didn't understand that unconventional point system.

Yay for your good grades! I'm glad your grade in Collection Management turned out to be a pleasant surprise.
