Score/grade in the course.

I got a score of 20 in that course.

I scored 20 in that course.

My score was 20 in that course.


Hi,

As you know "score" is used in the US but I think we should use "grade" in the above sentences because "score" in the US is mainly used for exams and tests not for the courses.

Do you Americans agree with me that we should replace "score" with "grade" in the top three sentences?


Thank you.
