6/10 is a D, 5/10 is an F
65/100 is a D. Anything lower is an F.
Maybe where you went to school. I always had Fs at 59% and under… just like in Wikipedia’s article. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_grading_in_the_United_States

Oh interesting. My schools were 69 and under was F. My understanding was 65 was a typical cutoff
I would argue under 60 = F is the norm. It’s even quite a common trope in movies / TV. Example:

You got F’d when you 69’d in school? Sounds wild.
I guess I did kind of perfectly tee that one up didn’t I
