Are Yale/harvard/columbia Grade-inflated Schools?

<p>well my question is.
are the ivys and top schools grade-inflated?
as in a bunch of people get high grades or what?
anyways i am stressed out about college.
thanks!</p>

<p>That is the general belief about top schools, yes. I would say most people think inflation at harvard>yale>>columbia. But grade inflation isn't a subject that interests me (you'll see I'm headed to a school many deem "deflated"), so I don't have any real facts on the matter.</p>

<p>Oh dear, I see the "Swarthmore '11". I'm just not sure I could take the intense, insomnia-inducing workload that the Swatties have. Best of luck to you! Really.</p>
