In addition, grading scales at university-level institutions have changed frequently. Grading scales can be 1 to 8, 1 to 4, or A through G, where A is on a 4.0 scale or on a 5.0 scale. The most common scale is now 1 to 7, with 9 being the highest grade obtained. In addition, degrees are awarded in a Class, depending on the grades received.
GPA not reported. Upper year courses have an easier curve. [120] GPA calculated based on 4.33 scale. New York University School of Law – not reported, but likely around 3.3 after 1L. Only 31% of 1L class grades are A−'s or higher. [121] University of Michigan Law School – class rank is not established until after graduation [122]

The Lebanese educational system consists of 5 cycles, which are divided among 3 main subdivisions: the preschool, basic, and secondary stages.
Aluminium alloys typically have an elastic modulus of about 70 GPa, which is about one-third of the elastic modulus of steel alloys. Therefore, for a given load, a component or unit made of an aluminium alloy will experience a greater deformation in the elastic regime than a steel part of identical size and shape.
Thorium metal has a bulk modulus (a measure of resistance to compression of a material) of 54 GPa, about the same as tin's (58.2 GPa). Aluminium's is 75.2 GPa; copper's 137.8 GPa; and mild steel's is 160–169 GPa. [12] Thorium is about as hard as soft steel, so when heated it can be rolled into sheets and pulled into wire. [13]
