<p>It's more like which schools have the least grade inflation, but still...</p>
<p>state schools have been known to have tough curves and weeder classes. Among ivy-leaguers, Princeton is notorius for grade deflation. And Caltech is apparently brutal (probably moreso than Princeton, but I wouldn’t know from direct experience) when it comes to grades.</p>
<p>The University of Toronto is known for brutal grading. Same for many other Canadian schools.</p>
<p>CalTech, Harvey Mudd, and Reed also qualify.</p>
<p>Grade deflation is different from non-grade inflation (i.e. lack thereof). Princeton’s median (or mean? But irrelevant in such a sample size) GPA is a B+, when a bell curve’s would be a C. I would hardly call that grade deflation.</p>
<p>Does University of British Columbia have brutal grading, noimagination? What effect does that have for a student there? Do potential employers view a 3.2 from a school with grade deflation more negatively than a 3.7 from a notorious grade inflating school?</p>
<p>^ A better place for these questions is s t u d e n t a w a r d s . c o m, sort of like the Canadian CC. From what I know, UBC is a very competetive school but not quite as relentless as Toronto. That can either be a plus or a minus.</p>
