Same! From public policy to law.

Unfortunately, I don’t have enough information to say anything too meaningful here. For one thing, I am unaware of any source of data about how many schools don’t give A+ grades. (Please tell me if you have some good source! I’d love to see it.) Likewise, I don’t have any data about how many law school applicants get A+ grades, so I don’t know that the differing school policies are disadvantaging a lot of students. And along those lines, even if we knew both of those bits of information, it doesn’t follow that a given applicant who is at a school where no A+ grades are given would have actually gotten A+ grades if the policy were different. Bottom-line, I truly wouldn’t get hung up on the possibility that, say, with a different system, you could have had six credits out of 120 that were worth .3 more.
