Scores are not grades. They are statements of tiers of quality. The more specific your scale is, the more absolute a statement of quality it is, and the more problematic that is. The 100% system is the worst possible option unless we get even more specific.

 

What can be possibly be  more of an accurate score than a percantage? 4/4? no, A+/B-? no, 9/10 ect....... no

people dont say that they feel 3/5 good do they? no , they say they feel 50% good

bottom line_________________

 So grades ensure quality? i think not, how many people cheat their grades? you can NOT cheat the percentage game.

...I do not know anyone who grades something that way, because it's attaching an absolute value measurement to an abstract idea.

Review scores do not need to be "precise". They are not grades, and are not supposed to be absolute statements of quality.

 

so nobody ever cheated their grades? percentages are simply the most accurate.
