[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's actually the reverse---the Big3 clout isn't working because they have grade deflation. The next rung of schools is actually doing better this year because they have more reasonable grading---i.e. As are actually attainable to kids who do the work. Landon is a good example---they appear to be doing quite well this year because the academic standard is decent but not unattainable. In contrast you have NCS who often gives the strongest students Bs. They (by all reports) are having a horrible admissions year, especially at state schools. [/quote] This is extremely accurate. Lots of people right now at my Big 3 who suspect attending has significantly hampered their child's college oulook. The whole Big 3 grade deflation thing is starting to really hurt them[/quote] How so if the school get the sheet that describes their grading? It used to be that colleges just knew that a B at NCS was an A elsewhere. [/quote]
