I'm curious how consistent these grades are from the past, say mid 90's? I think I remember it being as low as 70% or so. It must have been, or my brother and his friends would have never made it. Has there been a lot of grade inflation in high school? Or is it really that much harder to get in? Would be interesting to see if the bell curve has shifted throguh the years.
