[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted earlier my Brown had Yale as their other top choice. Brown isn’t nearly as chill as the Internet is led to believe. Maybe it used to be, not sure. [/quote]

That may very well be true. But the grade inflation is real, which is why it’s a popular choice for kids who want to do pre-med. [/quote]

My premed would disagree, but I won’t take this post on a tangent for OP’s sake. [/quote]

Individual perceptions can & do vary; your pre-med student is experiencing the pressure of being a pre-med student even though Brown is widely recognized as a school with grade inflation & a low pressure environment when considering the caliber of student accepted.[/quote]
The myth about grade inflation at Brown ...
It only appear to have grade inflation, but the reality is to get that A- or A, even these super high caliber Brown kids have to work their butts off, staying in library pass midnight and two days in the weekends.  In other schools it may appear there is grade deflation, but it's eithe rbecause they don't work as hard or just mediocre kids to start with.  [/quote]
