else if(courseAverage=85-92){letterGrade="B";}
What?? That's not how comparisons work.
Its wrong in some many ways, but the jist of it is that it will always evaluate true.

else if(courseAverage>85 && courseAverage<92){letterGrade="B";}

The logical operator for the idea of "or" is the double pipe symbol:

||

[Endl3ss]

you can think of if else statements like:

if(this is true then)
{
true goes inside angle braces
}

if the if condition is not true then execute the else

else
{
do these things since the if was not true
}

very much like using a bool but more complicated and many times you can just use a bool instead.

or add

 else if(other conditions)
{
other conditions can go here
}

for further conditions
