<p>I’m looking into applying to vanderbilt. I hear there is no grade inflation at all, and extremely difficult to get an A on exams…anyone tell me what it really is like?</p>
<p>Getting A’s at Vandy is difficult. Definitely no inflation.</p>
<p>1) grad schools know which undergrad programs inflate gpa’s and which don’t…it’s their job
2) human resources employees at all major firms recruiting undergrads know these facts as well…it’s their job</p>
<p>your options are definitely clear. i’d rather challenge myself to reach the more difficult A than have high school over again.</p>
<p>Vanderbilt is awesome. Don’t let the grade issues scare you away. The quality of education and quality of life is fantastic. Strong athletics, too.</p>
