Grades Aren't Everything

To the Editor, While I agree with many of Amie Sugarman's assessments ("Deflating Grade Inflation," April 22), I find it necessary to contest several of her statements, which do not seem to have a basis in fact. Ms. Sugarman boldly asserts that "a student from a much lesser university with a 4.0 grade point average clearly has the advantage over an Ivy Leaguer with a much lower average." I don't think this is very "clear" at all.
