[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Students at Harvard are no smarter than they were in the 90's, and back then the average GPA was below 3.5. Standards have gotten softer. There should be corrective measures to fix this issue. However, I do fear that lowering GPAs will hurt Harvard students seeking medical and law school admissions. [/quote] To be fair, they are absolutely smarter than they were in the 1990s. The kids are just smarter these days. More accomplished at a young age. I doubt half the class of 1992 would be able to get in these days.[/quote] Even assuming this is true … even if all Harvard students would be A students at UMass, that doesn’t mean they should all be A students at Harvard. Otherwise an A at Harvard doesn’t mean anything more than an A at UMass. [/quote] How could it even be true? Some Harvard admits need remedial [b]meth[/b] classes. [/quote] Maybe they didn't take AP Chem.[/quote]
