University of Florida gives E’s in place of F’s. Can’t have someone being called a failure.

Who takes art in high school? As far as his genetics, he couldn’t be luckier to be born into the Romney clan.

E grades were still given out when I was in school in the 90s.

In fact I actually got one in 9th grade Earth Science one marking period. I was so embarrassed that I vowed never again to slack off like that.

That grade went from an E to A in 6 weeks.

I miss the days when students got real report cards in school and were criticized for just doing enough to get by and not working to their full potential. I'm sure Mitt got the much needed kick in the butt and as a result, he's done quite well for himself. A self-made quarter billion dollar fortune and on his way to the U.S. presidency.

These days, everybody gets a trophy and mediocrity is not only tolerated but is the norm.

Btw who would “mock” that it was a possibility?

It’s part of the common grading scale throughout Michigan.

That’s a plain funny report card.

“We need a B- Student for President!”

In Romney's case, a fair report card might do him more good than harm. Sort of a, I'll show my bruises, let's see yours, kinda thing.

Do you see an “E”? I don’t see an “E”. You Romney haters are going to have to try harder. Contact your leader Harry Reid for further instructions.

The grading scale is at the top part of the second picture. It was possible for him to get an E, he obviously did not.

Was he known as “Mitt” back then? I guess it seems different they didn’t use his real first name.

I was a student in the Detroit system, with an A-E grading scale. The first time I heard someone say their grading scale was A B C D F, I thought that was nonsensical, as if they didn’t know the alphabet! I realize F could stand for fail, but the other letters grades are not alliterative, so why should the “F” be?

I don't see an "E". It appears he was a pretty good kid. Am I missing something?
