<p>3.7 for an A-?!?! 2.7 for a B-??! I suppose this could work in your favor if you got a B+, but this is odd. </p>
<p>Any alumni or current students can compare their high school to college scale. Since my schedule is between 9-2 each day (with classes and lots of gaps in between), i plan to study/classes during that time... hopefully thats enough?</p>
<p>Hopefully, I dont party too hard.</p>
<p>Thanks,

<p>tats how my brother's school works A is a 3.8+ A- 3.6.-3.7 etc. yea how hard are the classes, specifically the business ones.</p>
<p>That's just a standard scale, nearly all schools use something like that, I know that at my school a A- was a 3.666 and a B+ was a 3.333</p>
<p>They lured a bunch of kids in with scholarships and honors college requirements that made them maintain a 3.0 GPA. I'm sure that a B average can't be that hard to maintain, considering how many students need to keep those scholarships. </p>
<p>In 2001 it was reported that the average GPA was 3.11. At nearly every school the average raises each year, so it's probably around 3.2. I wouldn't worry about grading, although I do know that in general private schools give kids higher GPAs than public schools.</p>
<p>Well, certain professors are obviously tougher than others if you check out their grade reports (it's on the IUB website). </p>
<p>But like A2Wolves said, it's 3.11 overall--so it's not as easy as Harvard or Princeton (where people are known to coast through), but it's not as tough as a place like Purdue, NYU, or USC (which are known for their tough grading).</p>
