Whoa! How does GULC make it to that list?

Please explain to me why this a "lack of integrity". Aren't schools free to evaluate their students as they see fit?

BTW: Georgetown did not retroactively up any grades. It only upped the curve prospectively.

I wish I could hate on this, but UT Law inflates grades by using a 4.3 scale.

Tons of schools are adding the A+ grade as a formal grade. It used to be optional at some schools (and teachers never gave them out), and now it is part of the curve for every class.

For what it is worth, the grouping together for moral assessment (1) retroactive grade changing with (2) changing the curve in the future, is a huge mistake. Curves have been going up for decades now at pretty much every law school, and other areas of study. Once upon a time, a C was average. But the retroactive grade changing is a new phenomenon and should be treated differently.

I agree that retroactive grade changing is fundamentally different from implementing an A+ curve. However, I also believe the A+ curve is a thinly veiled attempt to give students higher GPAs.

Undoubtedly. It doesn't necessarily raise the median (well, it could be set up that way, but doesn't have to be), but for those who have a 4.01+ gpa, it really sets them up for great jobs.

Ok, don't apply to HYSCNB. No skin off my back.

I appreciate the way that GULC does it. The A+ still only counts as a 4.0 on the transcript, and profs are only instructed to award it for truly outstanding performance- once every few years.

seems like a good idea to me. gets the students to look more attractive without compromising anyone's rank, someone who is 50th in the class is still 50th after they increase gpas. if ur an employer and dumb enough to fall for this, then thats your problem.
