[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Problem in part is the grade inflation in MCPS. A very large portion of MCPS seniors graduate with over a 3.9 UW. [/quote] OK. If you think that is a problem then shouldn't all students have high grades? If all grades are inflated, why do kids have low grades? Also, if everyone's grades are inflated then why are students not taking APs and scoring 4/5 on them to differentiate themselves? Why are they not scoring high in SAT/ACT? You can't lament low grades and mediocre academic performance and at the same time crib about grade inflation. If your kid is very bright but does not work hard to get good results, what criteria should UMD choose them on? Their glowing blemish-free skin and svelte figure? [/quote]
