I need to be honest with you all: I don't know what to think of this website.
magellan: Eligibility for the three categories of Latin Honors (summa cum laude, magna cum laude and cum laude) at Duke are based on the cumulative grade point average for all work at Duke. Recipients are determined by the following procedure (and I quote): The grade point average included within the highest five percent of the previous year's graduating class is used to specify the grade point average needed by those students of the current graduating class to be awarded the summa cum laude honor. The grade point average included within the next highest ten percent of the previous year's graduating class is used to determine the grade point average needed by those students who will graduate with the magna cum laude honor. Finally, the grade point average included within the next ten percent of the previous year's graduating class will be used to determine those students eligible for graduating with the cum laude honor. Thus, about twenty-five percent of each graduating class will receive Latin Honors.
I graduated Magna Cum Laude at Duke.
Anybody willing to recommend a guidebook regardless of their Via Ferrata stance?
