<p>Oy, do I really have to explain this again?</p>
<p>Iwastypo, you 100% completely don’t understand how to properly analyze those statistics like most people. Assume I take 4 classes all of which the top 25% get As. In two classes I am in the top 25% and get As, in two classes I get Bs. Fifty percent of grades awarded would therefore be As even though only 25% of the members of that class received As.</p>
<p>Not only that, but there are many seminars of 10 or less students where if everyone gets the work, they all get As, and there are many classes where only 5 students will get an A out of 20. It’s really dumb to look at a cross section like that due to the fact that some seminar classes and other things can seriously skew results.</p>
<p>Also, depending on your major things change.</p>
<p>AND you’re making a leap that you can’t make stastistically anyway.</p>
<p>Lawyerdad, perhaps if we knew why you’re asking the question, what your concern was, etc we can far beter answer teh question than with these ambiguities and anecdotes.</p>
