[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Brown grads I know are exceedingly normal, one is super active in the junior league. It's not a great school academically (lots of grade inflation, very little rigor), but it's difficult to get in so the kids are bright.[/quote] No, there is not "lots of grade inflation. " But GPAs tend to be higher because Brown encourages students to take some classes pass/fail (S/NC) to push them out of comfort zones. Also, students can retake a class for new grade, and a failing class drops off. Neither policy affects the actual grading in any given course and both good for learning mindset and mental health.
