Can someone explain Americans school system to me?

Question

I find it really confusing and I have no clue what SATs are and if you have any other major exams. Also are they grades C-A*. Do you SATs for every subject

Answer

For me, my school did C’s-A’s.
C = 70% - 79%
B = 80% - 89%
A = 90% - 100% +
N/A = failing the class
with below a 70%
SAT’s & ACT’s are the same thing, it’s a standard test and depending on how you score on it, you can get scholarships or grants (free money to help with college), you can get accepted into the college you apply to, or if they are bad scores then a college won’t accept you.

Answer

Well my school (live in the US) just fucks it up even more making our grading system on a 1-8 scale (1 is fail). The numbers translate to letters roughly but 7 is an A+ and 8 is an A++ like what the hell are they thinking. Oh and we also have ACTs which are very similar to SATs and you can take them both and than decide which test you got a higher score on and use that one. But the testing doesn’t end there hun that’s just the beginning

Answer

Out gracing system runs from F to A, with F being the lowest it means your grade is a 59% or lower, and it also is a failing grade. D is 60%-69%, which is still kind of a terrible grade, C is 70%-79%, B is 80%-89%, And A is 90%-100%...  basically they put letters to certain percentages it’s stupid but it also makes sense at the same time

Answer

SATs are what you take before college. You dont have to take them although most colleges do require them. Its a standardized test that basically just states how smart you are at taking tests lol i didnt take them but i went to community college which doesn’t require them. We still have final exams and such as well
