[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Extremely common. Just read up on the HS threads on valedictorians where [b]everyone with above a 4.0 [/b]gets to be #1 in the class, meaning like 200 kids. [/quote] This does not mean they are all getting straight As. It means they take a lot of AP/IB/DE classes and likely get a mix of As and Bs. My DD was a W-L "valedictorian". She got a lot of Bs and occasionally had a C and once a D on a quarter report card. Fortunately for her GPA, that's based only on the final grade for the year. In APS "valedictorian" means something more like "magna cum laude", aka the top tier of students in GPA but it's a pretty big tier.[/quote]
