[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to be clear, a student could earn half As and half Bs on every report card (3.5 or so on each report card), however, as long as they always go A + B on each class, they will have all As for semester grades. The student will then have a 4.0 on their college transcript. This is even though they have never earned a 4.0 in their life on the report card. Is this right? [/quote] Yes. The kids all know this hack. You can focus on 3 classes o e quarter and two the next (or vice versa) and only worry about getting A’s in those classes. DD and her friends all ascribe to some version of this plan. I can’t really argue against it since the system was set up this way.[/quote]
