What percentage does it take to get a 12??????
In a class, what do I need to get if I want a 12? Does 90-100 equal a 12 or there some other conversion system?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

Generally your assignments and stuff would be on a percentage scale (out of 100)
Your final grades will be in the 12 point scale

12 = 90% - 100%

Anything that can be marked quantitatively will be in percentage (more precisely in fractions). Others will be marked with the alpha scale (Essays for example).

Why thank you. If your real name is Kaka, that deserves just as high of a mark.

Essays are actually given a percentage (at least in some classes) however you don't find out exactly what it is because they only give you the letter grade. Its something I find very frustrating.
