[quote=Anonymous]Potomac publishes a list of 11th grade grades on the college advising sheet. Cs and Ds are not common. The accelerated math track is challenging; outside support or a switch to regular math might help the situation. Is your child meeting with the teacher during free periods to get guidance? They are available if your child seeks help! As to your question about competing with 4.0+ gpas elsewhere, the colleges receive a summary of the school and its rigor, and can properly compare gpas. It sounds like the accelerated math is causing a lot of pain and stress—I’d talk to the teacher and your child to see if a switch would help. The kids who switch out of accelerated seem to cruise through the regular math with more success and less stress![/quote]
