Well, two typos combined with the fact that I was at Wrigley Field made this a little stressful. Fortunately, the first typo only made the problem less explicit -- there was really no other way to interpret the problem. And by your answers, Robert cleared up the second typo very well.

There seemed to be three groups of students -- those who simply nailed the exam (the A's), those who pretty much knew the concepts but weren't totally on top of it (the B's), and those who were swimming a bit (the others). The grade ranges are below:

A+: 38 to 41
A: 34 to 38
B+: 29 to 34
B: 24 to 29
C: 19 to 24
D: 14 to 19
F: Below 14
