Yeah exactly. Good luck getting 90+. Haha

I also enjoy when people talk about the curve they usually use an example something like "and say your class is full of geniuses and the class average is 90% and you get 80%, now you get a C-" or whatever. I don't know in what world the class average would be 90%. The prof would get fired.

That's what people seem to think that bell curve is like.

Saying "over" exaggerated is redundant since exaggeration is already an overstatement.

Remember kids, knowledge is POWER!!! cheers

I only got curved down once, and it was only 1%.

But yeah, the curve is there to help everyone after they get destroyed by the exam.
