[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cornell is known for low grades. They put the class average on transcripts for reference. It's fine but did take my straight A MCPS kid a semester to get over her gpa. She knew the straight As were inflated.[/quote] Cornell needs low gpa cuz it accepts HS students in the top 1-10% range. Typical ivies accept top 1-2% so these schools don’t need to deflate. Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Columbia are already academic performers. [/quote] None of the ivys have an acceptance rate that high but even discounting that I have no idea why you think that means they need to deflate grades. https://www.thoughtco.com/ivy-league-schools-class-of-2020-4122267[/quote]
