| Jun 11 at 14:43 | comment | added | Lambie | @AnIELTSLearner in all fairness, that's a different question and easily googled. The answer is: If it causes confusion, use the apostrophe, otherwise no. Dot all your i's and cross all your t's. | |
| Jun 11 at 14:37 | comment | added | An IELTS Learner | @PaulTanenbaum Oh for sure. I wouldn't use mine; there are so many other good suggestions here. Having said that, I still want to know whether "many A's" or "many As" is correct. | |

| Jun 11 at 1:58 | comment | added | An IELTS Learner | Thanks! I wonder if there should be an apostrophe after A as I've seen both versions. | |

| Jun 10 at 19:56 | comment | added | James K | I think you've misunderstood this one... I think "than my A's" refers to the number of grade "A"s he received at school. | |
