Chapter 13- Grade Inflation

Grade inflation is when the professor adds extra points to the grade to help doctor student’s GPA’s. Grading is getting easier as the years go by and it is all because of grade inflation. The picture I included was of my math test. I originally got an awful grade and my professor decided to add ten points to everybody’s test. Maybe the test was just extra hard and that is why he added a curve to this exam. However, he has done this to every exam all semester making it possible for all students to pass the course. Although it is very appreciated by the students, it does not do justice to showing the school how the students are learning.
