Rank and GPA are no longer predictors of success. When it takes over a 3.0 to be in the top half ... the average grade is a B, there has to be inflated grades somewhere. And the question is whether those grades are based on what was learned or what was tried. If I am given two or three chances to take a test or five or six chances to write a paper, of course I am going to do well.
