If Michigan (in my case both phil and poli sci) is typical, most grad
student transcripts are mostly As. If you don't get mostly As, they invite
you out of the program. Grades doesn't tell you much. (I did get one A+ in a
Michigan polisci class from a (very conservative) professor who decided I
was a genius because I came up with a way of operationalizing Lenin's theory
of imperialism.) The real ranking is done informally by the profs, who
decide who the stars are.  --jks
