[quote=Anonymous]^you learn just as much when a course is challenging at this level, with difficult or unsolveable problems as part of the course, whether the median is set to an A or a B-, though the former is less demoralizing, and also the former does not set apart the median ivy student (A) who is super smart likely top1-2% among all college students from the one who frequently gets one of the top few scores(A) and is almost certainly a 99.9-99.99%ile student. The new system gives at least some separation, and is more in line with what most ivies do. Only Harvard and Brown had gotten this far off track with the 40-60% flat As. [/quote]
