Courserank says the curve in Physics 41 is generous, but I haven't heard anything bout a curve. Is there normally a curve?

So it IS curved.. and normally not to hurt you.

I doubt it's curved to a B-, unless you mean that's usually the lowest grade. The three people on my hall in the class all got 100% on the last exam, so they may not adjust the grades much as it might not be necessary. I think the prof is pretty generous with grades though, as a couple of years ago he raised the grades of 60 series students because he felt bad about giving us a final that was poorly written and especially difficult.

I never took 41, but it's probably easier and better curved. When I took 45, I was told pretty straightforward it was curved to a B-, real avg was around a 75 for the class.
