Wtf is "S" and why is it above "A"
I...is this a legit question or a joke I don't get?
Maybe he just deserves the ol one in ten thousand xkcd links.
S is Special. S tier is the top tier. Nothing beats the S tier.
Neato thanks
Your snark is only deserving of more snark. North America isn't the only culture out there. https://www.scholaro.com/db/countries/Japan/Grading-System
I mean, it's a valid question. The grade procession seems logical, following the alphabet from F to A and then it suddenly jumps to S for some reason.
S makes sense to me if it's rarely given. Supreme, Special etc.
A-F tiers are ordinary. A is good, but it's the expected level of good. If it's extraordinary, S tier.
You should examine what in yourself made you see snark in my question. I hope you have a better day tomorrow than you're obviously having today.
