<p>Can you guys rank the LAC’s I name in order of toughest workload to least toughest. I know the LAC’s I will name are going to each have a difficult workload. I just want to know which colleges generally have a harder one.</p>

<p>Amherst
Williams
Carleton
Macalaster
Colgate
Pomona
University of Richmond
Bowdoin
Wesleyan</p>

<p>How hard is it to get an A in a class at Amherst? Is it the norm or close to impossible? What does it take?</p>

<p>Grade inflation appears to be present at Amherst. However, when I visited, I was told that some professors will only grant a B+ for most work.</p>
