i was just wondering how the grading system is in optometry, pass/fail? grades? very curious
 
Pretty much the same as college. Grading scale depends on the professor.

Evidently SCO is changing clinic grades from actual grades to pass/fail.

Most of SCCO's classes are ABCDF grading without the +/-. All the others including clinic grades is pass/fail.

Most of WesternU's classes are on the letter grading system without +/- as well. Interprofessional education (IPE) small group classes and patient care is pass/fail.
 
P.C.O.: Letter grades (no plus/minus) for most courses; pass/fail, for a small minority (e.g., labs.).
