“I think it helps take pressure off of tests. If your class doesn’t really know the material, it helps you get back on track.”

“I think that curving grades is helpful because people make little mistakes all the time and curving the grade could help fix that.”

“I don’t see curving as a bad thing. Either the subject was not taught well or there was a lack of understanding.”
