Grading Deflation in Questrom (SMG)

I’m very interested in BU and want to apply ED to the School of Management (aka Questrom). I’ve heard that the grading is insanely difficult there, though, which is throwing me off a bit. Can anyone give me some insight on whether or not the grading there really is ridiculously hard? I just feel like that’s an exaggeration…

ED to a better ranking school. Rankings matter a lot in finance and business, which convinced me to transfer out of BU. For questrom you need at least a 3.2 gpa to get on the dean’s list. Maybe there’s deflation. Don’t worry about it. We have some great business clubs and frats, but BU is definitely not a feeder into goldman, jp, or morgan stanley.

There is no such thing as grade deflation at BU, it’s just an excuse people with bad grades use to deflect their own mistakes.
