<p>What are the curves like at Rice?
Do the professors control the percentage of A's or do they award students A's if they simply get a certain number of questions right on tests?
And how competitive is premed at Rice compared to other schools of its calibur?</p>
<p>Curves vary. Some classes have them and some don't. The professors can control the percentage of A's I suppose, but I have not heard of a specific example. One professor did tell me about her class one semester performed better and earned more A's than all previous classes, so that was completely the students.</p>
<p>It depends.....math.sci classes do things diff than hist/eng</p>
