[quote=Anonymous]I think that the overall application process captures far more information than this, and so while those Bs may have some impact, there are many other factors that will be weighed as well (how he tests, the essay he writes, teacher recs). One thing to consider (we are considering this) is whether he himself cares about these Bs, and whether/how much he really wants to pursue these magnet programs. Whether he gets in is a different question from whether he wants to go. Our child, an eighth grader at a magnet, is also applying to these high schools, but DC's level of enthusiasm for the process is very striking to me. I'm wondering if DC is burnt out at 13yo and if we should be considering a less intense track for high school.[/quote]
