Can anyone who has attended BU recently (or not) give a little perspective into the grade deflation controversy, particulary for Questrom/SMG? Thanks!
BU’s reputation for grade deflation is well known, although I do not believe it exists. I am sure that the BU administration and adcoms are aware of this reputation yet they have never tried to counter it.
My guess is that BU does not want students who are looking for easy A’s and want to breeze through college with a 3.7. It is a way of screening out people.
