I was looking at the Admissions profile for PA and noticed that while a 6=A+, a 5=A, 4=B, etc., that an enormous number of students have greater than a 5 average (like the majority).
How is this possible?
That’s saying a majority of the students have higher than a 4.0in the traditional scale. Is that reality, or is a 4 a C, 5 a B and 6 and A?
Seems odd if having an A average at Andover puts you below the bottom half of the population. Supports the argument that you are better off getting A’s at your LPS and being a standout, no?
