My university does use the +/- system, but only for appearance at the moment - it doesn't affect your GPA. Starting next fall, they'll add in the different GPAs like the original poster mentioned - but I'll be gone by then, so it won't matter.

I agree with Lurkette though - I prefer the raw numbers, for the most part. However, in certain classes (i.e.: my computer algorithms class), anything above a 79 is an A, so it goes both ways. In that class, I'd rather have the "A" on my transcript than an 85.
