[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid goes to a Big3 school with significant grade deflation. It appears that the kids are not doing well at all with college admits this year. Maybe 5 kids total got EDs so far? I know multiple kids who were deferred or rejected at University A or B when their peers at less competitive privates and publics were admitted to University A or B. These are really smart and hard working kids but the school is such that only 1/12 kids in some classes are granted an A. Is the grade deflation catching up? I just wonder what admissions really thinks when all the applicants from our school have GPAs under 3.8, many quite a bit under. Am I just worrying too soon in the admissions season or have you noticed this too? I have an underclassman. [/quote] Sounds like NCS.[/quote]
