Which grades are used on the C&A report card?

• A. A for excellence and F for failure
• B. B for excellence and F for failure
• C. A for excellent and D for failure
• D. A for achievement and F for fault

Answer: (A)

Grading uses a simple mapping where A represents top performance and F represents failure to meet standards. On the C&A report card, the grades used are A for excellence and F for failure. This pairing reflects the standard sense of A signaling the highest quality and F signaling a fail to meet requirements. The other options mix up the meanings or use nonstandard wording (for example, using a different letter for excellence or using “fault” instead of “failure”), which is why they don’t fit the established labeling.
