Note: The "A" answer is one to which most professors would very likely give a grade of "A." The grades assigned to the non-A answers indicate our opinion of their relative merit; however, given the great variation in grading practices, professors will almost certainly not universally agree on what grades they would give the answers. What is important is not the grade, but why the answers fall progressively short of the "A" answer.
