[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So no one in engineering/math classes get A’s? Sounds like more of a grading issue by professors with no background in education assessment.[/quote] Most don’t get A’s in the beginning. They are literally trying to get rid of a good 50% of the class. If you aren’t going to work your arse off nonstop they don’t want you. The grading the first two years is crazy harsh. We’re talking failing half a class, lots of D’s and a few C’s, 4 B’s and an A- out of a class of 100+. It’s terrorizing. Some of the kids who get B’s and C’s drop out too because they just aren’t used to that. I got mostly A’s my junior and senior years, but the most generous those classes ever were was 1/4 A’s in the class. Often just a few were given out each semester. It’s nothing like being a humanities major. Nothing[/quote]
