<p>What schools with great reputations have no limits on the amount of As they can give out? Where is the best acceptance rate to medical schools, Thanks</p>

<p>That could be any school…MIT starts out PassFail and that sounds pretty much a match for what you are asking. NO grade.</p>

<p>not necessarily easy, but I heard that John Hopkins will give only 10% of the class As and now Princeton is following.</p>

<p>great preparation…doesn’t give grades to first year.</p>

<p>Not exactly. MIT records all your grades, every year. However, on your external transcript, MIT will report only a grade of P (pass) in your first semester, and only grades of A, B, or C in your second semester. Grades lower than a C in your first year will not be recorded at all. But not that if you get a C in the second semester of your first year, your grade will be reported on your external transcript. </p>

<p>Furthermore, some medical schools demand the right to violate the MIT hidden-grade policy by demanding to see your internal transcript which contains ALL your grades. Hence, the ‘shield’ of hidden grades has been effectively pierced. </p>

<p>“Please note, that grades for courses taken under pass/no record during freshman year are important to a few medical schools. Although not common among the majority of medical schools, Johns Hopkins University does request to see your freshman hidden grades.”</p>
