“Worse grade deflation” is more confusing than it needs to be, as you are just asking which school has more grade inflation. To that I do not know the answer, but whatever values you find, keep in mind that both Cornell and Carnegie Mellon students tend to work really hard.



how are we possibly going to know about grade deflation at cmu?

Look at the average GPA of a Cornell student and the average GPA of a CMU in a given department or as a whole and you can begin to get an idea of the grade inflation at each school. Granted, this is a crude measure.
