So I go to a small private school so not much goes on in the way of curves here.
I'm taking the O chem sequence this summer at a UC (a lower tier one if it matters). I'm crapping brix as it is about the class and how hard it's gonna be but I wanted to know more about grading curves. I've heard its pretty much a bell distribution with the top 10% getting A's and it going down from there.
Should I expect a normal distribution of 10% A's, 10% B and on? Do the numbers ever differ?
I'm looking to hear from UC students specifically (UCR O chem students, please reply! I'm taking it from Marsella) although any other insight is much appreciated.
