[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Prestigious” college just don’t give out F’s. Gotta try real hard not to pass.[/quote] Truth. Zero Fs happen at either of my kid's ivies and they also were not given ever at my non-ivy elite 26 years ago. D's were rare then but are almost unheard of now. Even C's are for less than 1/4 now, instead of about 40% of the physics or chem curve in the 90s. These days even the hardest classes "below average" is a huge pile of B- and barely under the average can be B. If a student is in the below-C range they are given the option to withdraw-pass, even after the deadline, by professors. It would take something egregious to get a an official D on the transcript.
