[quote=Anonymous]Another very important quote in the article: "the second (reason the hiring system collapsed below the top 20) is that most colleges make it almost impossible to get lower than an A-. so there is no longer a signal in someone’s grades when everyone has at least a 3.8" While there are posts and data on here almost every day about UVA median GPA 3.65 vs Harvard 3.9 and "deflated" ivies 3.75, and everyone complains that it is unfair the top schools inflate. What no one seems to see that we see in hiring is that the average GPA at most schools is indeed around a 3.8. While companies may prefer ivy/+ for the time being, and know them enough to not care too much about GPA, it becomes quite murky when USC, Union, and UGA all have a pile of people around 3.8 and up.
