Yes, but let's think about this for a moment.
Because of the curve, in order to pass the exam, students only had to get one third of the answers correct. A "C" grade was equivalent to one half of the answers.
Which means that a C student only has to learn half of the material.
And an A student has to learn approximately 80% of the material.
When the curve is that big, what does that tell you?
It tells me that the students aren't learning much, and the professor doesn't give a shit, he just wants 'em to pass so he doesn't get fired for being such a crappy teacher.
And yes, actually, my grades are important to me. I would like to remain in the honors program, not to mention, have the option to get into grad school.
