#grading

Everyone acts like a 3.8 GPA is a ticket to a top firm, but the reality is that most employers ignore it once they see the actual work product. The grading curve is arbitrary, varies by professor, and rewards memorization over critical thinking. law firms should base hires on writing samples and interview performance, not a number that can be inflated by a lenient professor. The whole GPA obsession just fuels unnecessary competition and distracts from learning the law itself.

i was at the crag yesterday, saw a route that was 5.14a but felt more like 5.13c tbh... anyone else think the grading is off or am i just overthinking it?? i saw a few climbers doing it in a half hour, which feels way too fast for a 5.14a i guess. also, some people say the grading scale is just a marketing tool, not a real measurement. so what's the deal? do we need a stricter grading system or is it fine as is??

i was at the crag rn and saw a v4 on a 3.6 route. the post i read claimed it's actually a v5. i think it's a typo but maybe the grading system changed?? can someone explain the difference between v4 and v5 on a 3.6?? also i heard a rumor that the black diamond atc harness 1000 is rated for 5.12b but is actually only good for 5.10c?? lol need clarity??
