[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was worried about my kid's grades at a top public and found a Reddit thread that eased my fears because it said the average male graduated with a 3.0 in computer engineering from the school, which they learned from their FOIA request. The math curve has been a D+ and kids routinely flunk classes. [/quote] If this is real you should name the "top public". What is the "math curve"? The median grade is a D+? Forced by policy? [/quote] I'm a different poster, but attended an engineering school that curved to a 2.6 GPA. Every class greater than 7 students had an enforced curve. I know lots of kids who graduated with a sub-3.0 GPA who got good jobs. But some of the kids with lower GPAs as freshman ended up flunking out of engineering as sophomores because they were missing basic math skills. Others had the understanding, just not the GPA, and did okay or even improved as classes got harder. [/quote]
