[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] A recent report found that a majority of grades given out at Harvard were A’s. Professors will vote on a proposal to limit the number to around 20 percent. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/us/harvard-grade-inflation.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share However, there is concern about increasing student stress and competition as a result of capping A’s. This is insanity. [b]If students can’t handle stress and competition then why go to such colleges? [/b]Just to reduce student stress everyone should get As.. crazy [/quote]Its not that you’re wrong. But when a school is asking you for half a million dollars, and at the same time telling you that it will subject your child to four years of extreme stress and competition and at the end of that time there is only a 1 in 5 chance that your child will be employable … you might think twice about giving that school your half million.
