In reply to the discussion: Can I get a ROLL TIDE! [View all]ieoeja
(9,748 posts)117. After my freshman year at Auburn, I transferred to a Big 10 school.
I coasted through Auburn getting mostly As and some Bs.
Then I found myself completely lost in certain sophomore level classes. Ended up having to re-take the freshman level at the Big 10 school and found they were much more challenging than at Auburn. Even though I was purportedly taking the same classes for a second time, my grades were worse because they were that much more difficult.
It's only an anecdote. But that was my personal experience with SEC vs Big 10 schools.
