Princeton cracks down on grade inflation

Posted by Eric at 10:48 am. Filed under: General

Limiting the number of A’s:

In a move students protested last year, Princeton became the first elite college to cap the number of A’s that can be awarded.

Previously, there was no official limit to the number of A’s handed out, and nearly half the grades in an average Princeton class have been A-pluses, A’s or A-minuses. Now, each department can give A’s to no more than 35 percent of its students each semester.
