What's your work input, grade output ratio?
If you’ve ever felt like getting an A was next to impossible, you’re in good company. According to a year-old story on CBS that has recently been bouncing around social networks, when it comes to tough grading, BU is up there with MIT, Princeton, and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. On the other hand, a 2007 BU Today story reported that the average GPA of BU undergrads was 3.04.

“YouSpeak” typically appears each Monday.
