[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I participate in interviews for my alma mater. I know your situation is different in that you're talking about a younger kid, but as a general rule, we've not been impressed with any sort of "explanations" (i.e. excuses) for "Covid year grades." All our other applicants maintained their 'A' records throughout the year, so I really don't care that you're such a social person you just couldn't deal with remote learning. [/quote] To what extent does grade inflation and/or watered-down curricula factor in to your applicants' 'A' records? Did your applicant pool contain more weak students (Covid "excuses", etc) than in other years? Are you aware that Covid impacted student progress and performance nationwide and do you attribute 100% of that to personal failings? [/quote]
