[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids can still take exams but it [b]allows teachers more freedom to teach their curriculum[/b]. I am supportive of this. I just assumed it would be fine. Still hoping but when I see that you get added points this is a pretty big deal. No one mentioned this. I am hoping a recent college family who has a school without AP (there were quite a few) can explain how it all panned out.[/quote] Why give teachers more freedom if the measure does not help students? Why teachers can teach whatever they want? The real reason is these private schools do not want to distinguish students so that big donors and VIPs' mediocre kids can get ahead of your smart kids. Same reason for no weighted GPAs, no ranking at these schools.[/quote]
