Hi
I know in undergraduate courses, some professors grade on curve and based on that they might assign A,B and C.However I am wondering how grading is done in graduate school since in most forums it is mentioned that graduate courses are not curved but at the same time I heard grading is a lot more lenient that undergraduate. So I would like to know what do you guys think will be proportion of A,B and other grades in graduate courses? I know it depends on a course and professor but I want to do know how different it might be from undergrad. So For example if in a class of 50 students , B in undergrad result in what grade in graduate level?
