Cornell grading

<p>

</p>

<p>I think the course itself was well-structured. What I felt was unnecessary was to curve a score of ~67/68 (the median) on an exam to a B+. I feel the class as a whole had a lot more potential, but with the curving in play people knew that they could input minimal work and still be guaranteed at least a B for the course. That being said curving is used everywhere, even outside of Cornell, so I can’t really complain that the professor did something revolutionary. I just used that class as a particular example to show this type of curving/grade inflation wasn’t as likely to occur in the past.</p>

<p>I did hear the sequel to the course is more challenging in some regards. Looking forward to it.</p>
