Don’t some Ivy League schools (Harvard) only award A & B grades. Like the first rated students get a+ and they deduct a few points each place in rank?
I feel like most of those Ivy League standards aren’t set so high to get the smartest in, but to keep poor people out

The academics aren't vastly superior. The students are though.

Yes. Ivy league doesn't give people Cs or D's. Probably even let's students retake classes without it effecting transcripts.

There were two Ivy kids in their class last year and three this year
Harvard and Princeton last year, seven of the top ten went to Texas
Harvard, Yale and Columbia this year, one Rice kid
Ivy admissions are all about backstory, interview and alumni sponsorship
The real cutthroat admissions here is the Service Academies with the political endorsement game.

Probably why Harvard and Yale have the highest perecentage of students on a university scholarship compared to the rest of the country.
