[quote=Anonymous]My kid took one easy required elective each year to balance his load. He took a very rigorous load in 9th, 10th and 11th, so that he would go in with a strong GPA (UW GPA 4, WGPA 4.7) and most rigorous curriculum when he applies to college after 11th grade. He did not take electives like Health during summer because he built up on ECs, internships and more classes during the summer. He basically used the easy electives as a breather during the regular school day. We were given this piece of advice by our public school counselor who sat and charted a course for us for the entire HS journey. And it was a really great roadmap.[/quote]
