[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well you take everyone from the Top 5% in HS and put them at Princeton. If the range of scores on an exam are 30-50% does that really mean the kids below 40% get a B- or lower? [/quote] At most Engineering Schools, including MIT and CalTech, — and probably also at Princeton in Engineering, the answer is yes. I went to a different Engineering School. In Calculus 1 & 2, 50% was usually an A and 25-30% was a C/C-. I do not know of any Engineering School which has the grade inflation which now is very common for many Arts & Letters degrees. The reality is that anyone with an Engineering degree really earned it, and even the lower GPA graduates in Engineering can get good jobs after graduation. [/quote]
