[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid got a 5 on AP Gov but got a B 2nd semester. I think the GPA is more important than the test score. [/quote] I also have this kid. In public school, so it’s not grade deflation. My kid just adores multiple choice tests. (Also: speed-driven board games and card games, Quiz Bowl.) They have a lot of fun and score really well. I am not convinced that my child is more “college ready” than a thoughtful kid who is more into chess, or poker, and shines on long form, untimed research assignments or in class discussion. It’s like sprinting versus marathons. No runner is the fastest at every distance. [/quote]
