  1. 1. When somebody says, "I aced that test!" does it mean they got an A or a 100%/A+

    • A+
      15
    • A
      18

When I say that I aced a test, I usually mean that I did really well on it. That usually means I got an A, but it could be A+.

Aced means something like 95 or higher

 

This is how I use it.

It's interesting to see this so close. I have always used ace in terms of getting an A+ on a test, but apparently my friend who said it meant A and fired all of this up in class was right...in a way. I'm still only going to use it in terms of me getting and A+. :P
