I'm an employee of MyEdu (www.myedu.com) and I came across your post and wanted to say thanks for the shout out! I also wanted to give you more background on where MyEdu obtains our grade data. MyEdu works directly with universities across the U.S. to obtain the official grade records (number of A's, B's...F's, drop rate, etc.) directly from the schools. So we don't rely on students to write in and tell us what they received in a course, we have the official data straight from the source. We have been collecting this data for years (at some schools, we have data as far back as the late 90's!) and at the end of each semester, we get the new set of grades and update our site. All this information means students can view timelines to see how grades change semester-by-semester and we can take the historic data to predict grading trends. Very interesting stuff! Now I know that as a MyEdu employee I'm totally biased, but what I find fascinating is that this grade information is paired with the university's course schedule, student reviews and degree degree requirements to allow for better planning and decision making in college. And here's where I really brag on MyEdu...we obtain data for 2-year and 4-year schools across the U.S. so in our system we report on 2.3m professors and 2.4m courses. We have a lot of information for students to take advantage of since we are free. Hope the above helps in answering some of your questions and thanks again for the great feedback! Cheers, Karen
