[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid is getting an A in the class, but a 3 on the test, of course s/he's not stressed -- the grading is too easy and the AP label is meaningless! This is exactly why the Mathews index makes no sense; not to mention why MCPS is the emperor with no clothes. [/quote] I am the poster who said that and I guess I should clarify that my unstressed kid has only gotten 5s. But there are certainly kids who get 3s on the test and an A in the class. The class is a year long class with a mix of assignments. The test is a 2-3 hour block of time. Some kids don't test as well - but that doesn't mean that they shouldn't take AP classes. And a 3 is still passing.[/quote]
