[quote=Anonymous]Nobody takes p/f in required core courses for their majors, as they are also highly counseled not too. Most are on the full letter grade system for 99% of their course and there is very little wiggle room, not inflation. 89.99% —sorry kid- it’s a B for the year. The university paper had a recent article about the turn to much harder grading, fewer As. But what do I know with two kids currently there and talking to their roommates and friends…. Lots and LOTS of time is spent in the library. Anybody thinking it’s easy is in for a huge wake up call. My kids attended a very rigorous, grade deflated HS and were drowning in reading material, etc. they said what they were assigned for 1 week was about what they would be assigned 4-6 weeks in high school. Our response: welcome to the Ivies, kid. Brown has changed a lot too. It’s nothing like 1990. [/quote]
