[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you do a google search "is grade inflation a problem at UK universities" you will find the answer you seek in various UK publications. (Spoiler: the answer is "yes.")[/quote] I'm sure you are right, but there are still enforced limits on first class degrees at Oxbridge. I think thirty years ago, only 10% of students got firsts, and now (depending on subject) it's up to 25%. However, considering that the median grade at most Ivy League schools is an A, the grade inflation situation does not compare.[/quote]
