[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They get above a 4.0 once they have taken one of the AP history classes in 10th grade. So, you won't see kids with GPAs as high as schools that give a bonus for honors/intensified or let students start taking AP in 9th grade. The first AP doesn't boost it too much. I think my straight-A student has a 4.05 after 1 AP sophomore year.[/quote] Wakefield (& probably WL & Yorktown?) allows 9th graders to take AP World History. [/quote] Yorktown does not. 10th graders will take AP world, AP Euro or APHUG. That is why it matters that their grade is looked at compared to others in their school. There isn’t even consistency among the three primary high schools in Arlington.[/quote]
