[quote=Anonymous][quote]As someone who has worked in admissions at a highly ranked professional school, I don't actually think the grade inflation at some of these schools helps most students much. It is harder to distinguish between students, which helps students who may well be weaker but who do more beyond just getting good grades. It also helps connected people more easily get internships with only slightly lower GPAs. Back when there were huge numbers of open spots, it didn't matter as much.[/quote] Interesting. So in effect it makes the process less meritocratic for students from grade inflated schools? The inflation doesn't help more people to get in but rather just makes it possible for weaker students to take spots from stronger students? [/quote]
