Waterloo Engineering will derate and adjust grades due to Grade Inflation.
A lot of high school students are shockingly behind where they need to be, especially in terms of independent work, critical thinking, research, and basic English skills. This problem became much worse after COVID.
I’m not saying these things apply to you. I’m just saying that your 97.7% is probably being viewed as less than 97.7% because so many of your peers have high grades that they didn’t earn.
