UniversityAbstractDespite a substantial body of research that criticizes norm-referenced (i.e., “curved”) grading forfostering a competitive climate, the practice remains a staple in STEM education and is unlikely tochange. One reason educational critiques of the practice may not have hit home is that not all norm-referenced grading is the same. There is likely a big difference between what we refer to as left-of-center grading, where exam means are in the 20 or 30 percentiles and a score of 40% can translateinto an A, and exams where means are near 60% and a score of 80% translates into an A. This studytests the hypothesis that students will distinguish between different types of norm-referenced gradingpractices. One hundred and seventy seven engineering students
