[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in nyc where there are plenty of private schools that are pretty well known for grade inflation.

Here's an example of grade distribution:

I 100% do not assume public schools grade more leniently than private schools. Usually it's the opposite. Public schools kids can actually get a C or a D [/quote]

This!! You never hear of this with the prep schools, but public’s don’t think twice about giving out what you earned and not a penny more.[/quote]

No one is paying 50k for their kid to get a D. Parents wound be freaking out [/quote]

My private s school kid got a D in chemistry and one in pre-calc. That’s what he deserved. I was just happy he passed and didn’t have to take them in summer school. These grades reflected his mastery of the subject. Looking at the report his school sends to colleges, his gpa of 3.3 was right around the middle of his class. An A was very difficult to get in a class there but he got a few in English and history classes. [/quote

How on earth did you kid get a 3.3 with 2 Ds? That's impressive.[/quote]
