matical relationship between the maxi-
mum and actual points entered and the
grade scale in use. For example, if the
custom grade scales break point for D–
is 60%, and the maximum/minimum
points are set to 100 and 40, the D–

grades are scaled to the numerical
equivalents set for a 4.0 scale. For
example, A is equivalent to 4.00, B to
3.00, etc.
