[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the end of each year, we tally up all our kids’ grades and give them money that varies as a function of grade received. Here’s the mapping we use: C = $200*(G - 3.0), where G is the weighted grade point score received in a particular class and is C is the cash they receive. So, if DC gets an A in a regular class, that maps to a 4.0 and is worth $200. An A in an AP class maps to a 5.0 and is worth $400. Anything below a B in a regular class maps to negative dollars and DC owes us money. My rising senior received straight A’s in 7 classes, all AP and honors. We paid him something like $2,650 for good grades in his Junior year. Is this excessive, normal, or skimpy? [/quote] Excessive and it will backfire.[/quote]
