[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]make sure they take the SAT or ACT this summer and submit those scores, even to "test optional" schools. They are going to need to show that they earned the grades and weren't given them as part of the pandemic/online learning chaos. [/quote]
Just got DC's SAT score today. The score does match the pandemic A's earned.[/quote]

Test score doesn't always equal classroom performance, even without "pandemic grades".  My DC had an SAT score that was definitely higher than the GPA would suggest; it was top 25% at many schools where the GPA was only in the middle 50%.  Apparently, the kid tested well.

I'm not sure who all these people claiming pandemic grades were hugely inflated are.  My kids earned pretty much the same grades they've always earned, and they were not all A's.  In fact, DC #2s math grade was a bit lower than previous years because online teaching was awful, the main teacher quit mid year and the replacement had no clue, and my kid refused to cheat.[/quote]
