        Organic Chem SUNY SB 1984. 36% was an A, 18% was passing. I got a 12 (planned to drop class). What did we learn?

        @fmanjoo @nytopinion people still do that ‽ Never ran into it myself. Some incorrectly used the term but for lowering grade cutoffs

        Given a large student number, the curve is the simple consequence of the independent gradings.
