Ontario universities tracking high schools inflating marks

Quote:
It turns out that there's an extensive list that details every single high school that has been determined as one that highly inflates students' marks.
As a result, dozens of schools were found to have such inflated marks that when they entered university, they saw upwards of a 27.5% drop from what they achieved in high school.

% drop from HS to Uni.

I hope they didn't inflate mine and I actually earned that 74% average.

To be fair though, the only inflating going on in high school was in my pants.

Makes sense, so many of us graduating in OAC had to take night school/summer school to bump our marks especially for calculus (they would kill us), but once we got in university it was a breeze. For my year our calc teacher got in shit because he was giving us 3rd year calculus materials to test us on...hence why I barely passed the class and had to retake high school calc in summer school along with everyone else

High school was sooooo 90s. I had to do summer and night school too. Good way to meet girls outside of our crappy high school.
