It depends on the distribution -- often times in a bi-modal distribution we have teachers who lower the high grades and raise the low grades to make it more bell shaped and less bi-modal.
The med school classes here curve you based on other students (which i find very reasonable if they average and throw out the outliers).
He didn't change it half way through..I triple checked my grade yesterday off of the online syllabus (which was still the same as day 1) im all cool cause it matches....Wake up to find a B- on my record and the syllabus is all of a sudden changed..So he changed the syllabus after the class was over...
