Some colleges have grade distribution information available by course. Prospective pre-meds choosing college smay be able to use this information to consider which colleges have more or less grade inflation in pre-med courses and their major courses. However, admission selectivity should be taken into account as well.

Note: this is a survey of students in the class asking what grades they expect, rather than final grades.
Prospective pre-meds should keep in mind most students admitted ^ were A (or A/B) students in high school .

Note: appears to be actual grade distributions, rather than surveys of students replying with expected grades.
