Maybe at some grad schools. But not at mine. I did find in general that just showing up to every one of my classes in undergrad as well in grad school pretty much guaranteed me a B. A's have to be earned. I got a C in one class in grad school. You've been misinformed.

Though everyone may not get an A in every class at graduate level and post-baccalaureate education, the program may have a GPA requirements to stay in the program or may require you to achieve a certain grade in a specific class for you to continue in a program. Post-baccalaureate programs are MUCH more strict about obeying these requirements than with undergraduate education. If you do not have a prerequisite for a course, they will kick you out even if they discover it half-way through the semester and it's far too late to pick another class. For example, in my teacher education program, you must have a B in your subject-matter teaching methods class to do student teaching. Anything less, even a B-, and you must retake the course. You do not student teach until you get a B or better. Also, you must take Educational Technology level 1 before level 2--no skipping, no exceptions.

The grading scale is slightly different in most grad school classes than it was in undergrad. Because you need to get a B or higher (or B-, depending on your school) in order to pass a class, teachers may tend to grade a little easier than in undergrad. However, a poll of all of my friends who have graduate degrees, as well as my own experience, was that grad school is extemely difficult, and getting straight A's is almost superhuman. I have one friend who did it, but he is a compulsive overachiever. Of course, this depends on your school. Just like in undergraduate, some schools (Harvard, to choose a stereotypical example) are more difficult than others.

This is definitely false. Not everyone gets straight A's; although, it is much more likely that per student, you'll probably have more students making straight A's in grad school than undergraduate school simply because graduate school standards are much more strict, in terms, of grading and students attending graduate school tend to be much more focused on their studies and their future career plans may be contingent upon their obtaining an advanced degree such as a Master's degree, or even a doctorate (the highest degree you can achieve). In grad school, you cannot make anything less than a "B" because anything less than a "B" is considered failing; whereas, in undergraduate school, depending upon where you attend, you can still make a "C" and obtain a Bachelor's degree, or even worse, a "D" and still graduate; although, making "C's" and "D's" is not recommended, if you wish to be fully admitted into a graduate school program because academic grades and test scores are heavily weighed and in some cases, so are your recommendation letters and personal essay. If you're getting an "A-," then you're most likely either doing the best that you can do, or simply not working as hard as you could. I hope this answers your question!

No. I am in grad school, and I have more B's than A's. And it's normal, I'm an average student in my program.

I am in grad school, and I have more B's than A's, and I'm pretty average for my class.

Everyone gets an "A" in grad school? Which school is that? Sounds like an easy school.

No. Most grad schools require students to maintain a 3.0 GPA in order to remain in good standing. A 3.0 is a B. So yes, you can get a B and still be in good academic standing (i.e, a good student). Remember, grad school is harder than undergrad.
