[quote=Anonymous]They said that because, in their infinite wisdom, they assume that she is not capable from an academic standpoint. That happened to me with chemistry in HS. I was not allowed to take advanced chem because I was not in a high math group. It is their way of tracking. I did get into advanced chemistry after begging. It was tough and I had to work really hard. The upside was that I got to hang out with some really smart kids and learned how they studied and what it took to get better grades. I first got a C, then two Bs, then finally an A! For the year, they gave me a B. Overall, my study skills improved. From then on I was much more studious and went onto a major university and of all things was a math major. This is an example of why I think that tracking stinks. Had I not begged to get into that class, I am not sure where my confidence would have been. [/quote]
