[quote=Anonymous]I understand the issue - is the average Harvard kid getting a B in a econ 101 more or less impressive than an average Penn State getting an A in econ 101. there's no way of knowing and it's unfair to both. There could be a national testing program on the college level, like a Bar Exam/AP mash up. For every major, there's a big two-day exam. And while it doens't matter for your graduation - the colleges decide who graduates. It would be a separate data point for students or employees. So a kid could write their GPA from harvard was a 3.4 or they could write they got a 1600 (or whatever) on their chemistry major comprehensive exam. And an Ohio State kid would also have the opportunity to also get a 1600. [/quote]
