[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If kids need 4.0 or 3.97 to get into Commerce school, then is the intro Econ class a weed out class? What is the grading curve? I imagine that many of the 1500 kids who take the prerequisite classes won't get an A? Is there grade deflation at UVA? What about the premed classes?[/quote] Grade inflation in all schools. They publish the data [/quote] The average GPA is under a 3.6. That is not grade inflation when at places like Brown and Harvard it's a 3.9. And Rice has 25% of the school with a 4.0 [/quote] Grade inflation is defined as rising GPAs over time and you can absolutely see that in the data. You are saying that because UVA is not there with Brown bumping into the 4.0 ceiling it has grade deflation?[/quote]
