<p>bball - skimming that link, the median grades looked pretty darn high to me. Only saw one C and one C+ (and those not in Engineering or hard science); not even sure I saw a B-. Tons of A, A-,B+. So, as an outside observer, I’m wondering (along with mini, above) where the “Cornell is so grade-deflated” rep is coming from. Is it that the grades below the median are WAY below the median? IE, either you do well or you bomb?</p>
