[quote=Anonymous]Grind schools get that way mostly by having a harsh grading structure combined with kids that were all top 2% of their class in HS. CMU has a harsh grading structure in STEM which severely limits As, while Stanford may assign the same amount of work but gives 40% of the class an A (and nearly everyone else who does the work a B). No idea how the grading culture originated at CMU…but it is what it is.[/quote]
