    Either one of 3 things:
    1) you forged your transcript
    2) the standard for education is very low in America
    3) you are actually quite smart/a very hard worker, but then you come on here and act like a fool to get attention

    In England we just have percentages for each piece of work/exam for each module which have different weightings depending on the length or importance of the work. They get averaged until you have six percentages (one for each module) then averaged again so you get one. 40%-59% is a 2.2 (the lowest passing grade, 3rd class honours or lower 2nd class), 60-69% is a 2.1 (the middle grade, 2nd class honours or upper 2nd class) and 70% and above is a 1st (top grade, 1st class honours).
    Which uni you at and what are you studying?

    American's grading system perplexes me. Though I guess ours does to them as well.
