The number of C grades that Hastings College of the Law doles out has much of the student body in a tizzy. The Hastings curve allows students to earn 20 percent A's, 60 percent B's and 20 percent C's. "I think the perception is, among many students, that having a C on your transcript harms your chances of competing," said third-year student Andrew Ziaja, who authored an opinion poll that found slightly more than 80 percent of the 543 respondents were unhappy with the school's grading system.

The number of C grades that Hastings College of the Law doles out has much of the student body in a tizzy.
In a recent survey of the school’s 1,250 students, slightly more than 80 percent of the 543 respondents reported unhappiness with the school’s grading system. About 78 percent said it would be worthwhile to make changes — and a faculty leader said the school is likely to accommodate them.
