If you want blatant grade inflation, look at the ivy leagues or most private schools. of course people who go there will say otherwise, but its sadly true. A friend of mine attended an ivy league and then when he came back for the summer attended the local UC for summer school. He was shocked that the average grade in the class was a C. He said thered be holy hell if the average grade in one of his classes wasnt a B or an A.
I went to Texas A&M. It was known to be a flunk out school.
However, Rice is supposed to be a better school, but everyone that goes there gets good grades.
When I worked, I always liked working with people from good public universities.
