[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopkins has plenty grade inflation now. Cornell grade deflation is really really bad. Intro courses (biology, gen chemistry) are large classes and curved to a C+. Weed out tons of premed each year even before Orgo.[/quote] This is not true. At all. Faculty is not allowed to give half the class Cs. There are specific restrictions on the % of Cs. The Cornell stem intro courses are curved to a B. (Hopkins is around B+). The curves get more friendly in second year. The median Cornell GPA is around 3.6 by the end of 4 yrs. Mean or average is 3.44 based on the recent article in the paper but the median is 3.6. [/quote] Agree. My daughter is there. There is SO MUCH MISINFORMATION on this forum that on topics I'm not familiar with, I'm likely going to be duped by posters who have ulterior motives (like having kids on Cornell waitlist). Sheesh...[/quote]
