@Tiny My mom is a TA at UT Austin. They use Canvas However, when I took summer courses in 2015 & 16 at Austin Comm College, we used Blackboard, and honestly Blackboard is pretty easy to use and functional - Canvas seems a bit complicated

@Sir yeah they both have 'quality points' which I have no idea what it means. I know it correlates with GPA but idk what it is exactly.

Drexel uses Blackboard as well. Idk what Canvas is like but I don't think that Blackboard's that hard to use.

@jimbo My school doesn't have +'s and -'s An 80 counts the same as an 89

a '+' is a third better than a straight which is a third better than a '-' so like a = 4 a- = 3.67 b+ = 3.33 b = 3 b- = 2.67 c+ = 2.33 c = 2 and so on down the list i think its usually up to the prof though on how they use the pluses and minuses

It's a class you really have to sit down and study for a lot of hours Bung. At least that's what I do and it works for me. People partying & I'm in the room, takes devotion. Ours is: A 4.0, A- 3.7, B+ 3.3, B 3.0 etc. More credits = more impact on grade

UC system does (i think it's uniform, at least UCSD and UCLA do it): A+ 4.000 A 4.000 A- 3.700 B+ 3.300 B 3.000 B- 2.700 C+ 2.300 C 2.000 C- 1.700 D+ 1.300 D 1.000 D- 0.700 F 0.000
