<p>To Baseballnerd: “It is McGill official policy that all grades should fall within the range B- to B (65% - 74.99%)” (taken right off of my MGCR 352 course review powerpoint). This should tell you a few things, one of which: it doesn’t matter if the grading is hard, all grades will fall within that grading range. That also being said, I’ve heard of situations where classes have all done really well (i.e. everyone gets 80%+ on their tests/assignments), and then were all curved down accordingly (this is more common, however, in engineering). </p>
<p>Not to rip on management kids, but in general, I’ve noticed your average management student is just slightly above mediocre (or I guess average here). When they find something hard, you can assume that even a slightly competent student will find that same thing of laughable difficulty. Look at any professor’s “ratemyprofessor.com” scores within management. If that prof teachers a course with any math what so ever you’ll see a majority of comments like “this class was SOOOOOOO hard”, with the occasional “I don’t know what everyone else was talking about. I’m a [insert any other faculty name except education] student taking this as an elective, and it was by far my easier class of the term”.</p>
<p>Just my .02$.</p>
