Today I was sitting in a managerial accounting class. Before class started I heard some students talking about their business calculus class, which is a pre-requisite for entrance into the university's business college.
They were talking about a recent test and how the highest score was a 70% which due to the curve applied became an "A". The girl mentioned she scored a 30% but due to the curve got a "C".
This is just a reminder to me that A's and C's aren't always what they seem when it comes to college courses. In these cases it becomes less about what you know and more about how you scored in relation to your other class mates. This makes me even prouder of my CLEP scores even if some of them are just barely passing.
