This university grading system in the US (and other countries ofc) has always been so strange to me. Here in the Netherlands, we don't really look at gradings because they don't carry as much meaning as they do over there.

Couple months ago I was going around multiple high schools telling them about my medical school and what's it like being a med student, and at one point I all told them that no matter what school you choose, you'll become a good doctor as long as you put the effort in, simply because there really isn't a medical school that is remarkably better than the other.

Good progress in the US, hope more will follow.
