<p>Hi, </p>
<p>I have recently seen a thread that had a grade inflation scale used by law schools to adjust for GPA on CC. I lost it and can't find it anymore.</p>
<p>Can anyone help me find it?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>I am specifically interested for grade inflation/deflation for science engineering for the following schools, relative to each other:</p>
<p>HYPSM, Caltech, Rice, JHU, Duke, Berkeley, JHU, U Chicago, WashU.</p>
<p>I don’t know what HYPSM is, but I’m pretty sure none of the others will be considered to have grade inflation. Those are highly respected schools, not mediocre state schools.</p>

<p>Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>From what I hear, privates are more known for grade inflation than public schools, but I could be wrong.</p>

<p>Thanks… Uh, Oh MIT has -2.6… Yikes!</p>
<p>MIT is very distinguished. But they do not have a medical school. </p>
<p>The tendency of institutions with medical schools to favor their own undergraduates probably hurts MIT. Princeton has no medical school but is very “old boy” with other ivies and that helps their applicants. Yes, this is ancedotal.</p>
<p>One can suspose, postulate, or extrapolate that observed medical school preferences for their own undergrads logically creates a tendency to favor undergrads from other institutions with medical schools. A purely hypothetical example; Mercer takes a 3.40 GPA/ 24 MCAT from Harvard expecting their 3.95/33.0 would have a better shot at Harvard Medical. Quid pro quo rules the U.S. in everything else, why not this?</p>
