How can you say math sucks? Our understanding of math is the prime reason we can succeed in this hobby of ours. Mathematics is so misunderstood because all we think math is is what we did (or did not do) in our algebra classes in high school. Believe me it is much more.

What in the hell is an E in math?? I taught school in 2 different states in 3 different school districts and I never heard of an E before .....

I don't think math sucks, I think it is incredibly inspiring to watch those that can do it. I myself do not have the correct mental capacity for advanced math. It took everything I had to pass Calculus I and thank God that is the highest level of math I have to take to do what I want to do. God bless the mathematically inclined people that provide this world with all the neat gidgets and gadgets that provide entertainment, communication, and save lives.

University of Illinois also uses an E for a failing grade. They also use a 5.0 grade scale. It makes your GPA sound better to others.;)

I'll give you mine, but its most likely not needed now. Female, 8. I think E is equal to F. Always wondered why it was A,B,C,D,and then F! Makes no sense, IMO should of been E. With that said I went to a school that used 5-1 instead of A-F----5 being an A and so on.............Good luck on the project, hope it all works out!
