Hello everyone,
I attended University of Sussex back in 2008, and I earned a Master of Arts in English Literature. I know it's been a few many years but I'm now trying to figure out what my marks mean? I was born and raised in California, so my understanding of the English marking system is very poor.
I earned a 75 on my final dissertation and a 70 as an overall mark. My classmates at the time congratulated me, reassuring me that my marks were not poor by any means! However, being American, 70 translates into a very LOW grade, and after all these years I'm starting to have doubts. I would love some clarification.
I have contacted the university, but they weren't able to provide me any helpful information at the time. Ultimately, I need to know what these marks translate into when converted to the American GPA system. As for now, I'd just like some insight as to how I did! Any piece of information would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
