    How To Calculate Grade

    I want to know the function I should use to calculate students' grade such that the highest 10% scores get "As", the second highest 20% gets "Bs", the third 40% highest get "Cs", the fouth 20% get "Ds" and lowest 1.0% get "Es".



    Thanks

    Tables. Everything is driven by tables. Youd have a table for grades and the range:
    grade LOW HIGH
    A 90 200
    B 80 89
    C 70 79
    D 60 69
    F 0 59

    the query would get find the range where the grade pts are between the low and high range and produce the Grade.

    I don't think it's as simple as that. You might be able to adapt that once you've ranked the students:
