Well for starters my biology 110 class, which is the main core class for pre-med freshman, had about 600 students in it, all graded on a curve. By default some students would fail.
After that EVERY class I had in sciences were graded on a curve like that, physics, chemistry, bio-chem, micro-bio, etc. The classes got smaller and smaller as you moved up due to attrition and specialization, but the curve remained. The only class I took which didn't have a curve was a 500 level genetics class, which was a very small class.
