[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The terms "inflated" and "deflated" have no inherent meaning unless you're comparing to something else.[/quote] Nearly 60% of a class scored over 1400 on the SAT, 70% were AP Scholars by junior year. Only two students have a 4.0. Would you suspect grade inflation or deflation?[/quote] Teachers don't just grade on a student's ability. There are other requirements in a course which might explain the disparity between these numbers. I'm thinking of quizzes, submitting work on time, etc.[/quote] That should be universal at all schools though, so it’s insufficient to explain the disparity among schools.[/quote]
