Since 1988, Yale has awarded three levels of Latin honors to the top 30 percent of each graduating class: summa cum laude for the top 5 percent, magna cum laude for the next 10 percent and cum laude for the remaining 15 percent. Last spring, the grade-point average cutoffs for the three levels of distinction were 3.96, 3.88 and 3.80, respectively, while the cutoffs for the class of 2012 were 3.95, 3.89 and 3.80, respectively. GPA cutoffs for the Latin honors have increased by at least three-hundredths of a point since 2010.

what makes you think 10% of the people who get into harvard aren't smart enough to legitimately earn 3.9s?

Why? So you can assuage the pain of your rejection with a little schadenfreude?

obama graduated in days when 90% of the class got honors because it wasn't a moving cutoff

Is it that bad? Do four years at Podunk State really consist merely of inputting answers thorough a clicker in a 900-man lecture?
