Which type of grading you think would be better??? A pass or fail class or a ABCDF class. And why?

pass or fail would make life easier, but i prefer the letter-grading system

letter grading

Scale... because I worked way toooooooo fucking hard to be just "pass."  Someone that made a c to my a, would be on the same level.

ABCDF- Distinguishes more of the people who excel and the people who just get by.

for some reason i feel like pass or fail is like nothing, like they dont put there time into looking at my work, and the grading system i would know how well i did.

And with that "pass" or "fail" it wouldn't really matter.  Hell, I'll just make a c then.  I'll still pass and graduate.  That person that made an a just wasted his time.

if it was just pass or fail, everyone would be the same. there would be no excelling or anything, just the norm.

Pass or fail would be way more stressful because it's an all or nothing thing.  I'd definitely say I like ABCDF better.
