<p>I heard cornell gives reallt crappy GPAs. Is it true?</p>
<p>Cornell does not inflate grades. You’ll probably experience your first Bs and maybe even Cs at Cornell. The good news? Grad schools know that Cornell is tough, so they won’t look down on you if you’re not a 4.0 student. Honestly, you shouldn’t have trouble maintaining your grades enough to keep scholarships as long as you do your best. Good luck!</p>
<p>haha I’ve experienced my Bs and Cs already… let me taste some As…</p>
<p>Yeah, you get what you earn. It’s the same at my school, Davidson. People often complain about deflation…but really, there’s no deflation so much as there is no inflation.</p>
<p>You get used to it. You get there, you get your first grades back when you get home in December and realize you just barely have a 3.0…and you’re somehow okay with it.</p>
<p>You can take pride in that B average because you know you at least worked hard for it…whereas had you gone to Harvard, a B average would be part of the default package.</p>
