Yeah you will have to study hard to beat the curve. Basically you want to score one standard deviation above the mean to be in the A- range and top 25-30% to get a solid A. That’s actually really hard to do imo although it sounds like a lot of people. All the kids here are basically the top kids from their school so grades can be very competitive especially in lower div technical classes where the curve is set to a B- which is a 2.7 GPA. If it’s set to a B (3.0), then it should be a little easier.
