^While the grade distributions between universities may end up the same, the user is asking if the means to get to that grade distribution is the same and that statement regarding similar grading method may not necessarily be true.

Some students dislike curves which pull their grades down because having tests that are too easy is unarguably a worse means to establish a gradient of student knowledge than if the exams were too difficult.

A talented student would, therefore, receive lower marks at a university where their exams are too easy and curves pull their grade down.



Do they grade on the heartless curves that Cal is known for?

At UCLA, curves usually help and not hurt you. Exams are sufficiently difficult so that a bunch of engineers won’t be coming home with 90s.
