[quote=Anonymous]3 kids who have gone through the process. My take is kids are just smarter and more academically focused than my generation. Look at SAT scores. They are definitely higher than when I was in HS The problem is not grade inflation. Kids are taking more academically challenging classes than ever before. Dual enrollment not really a think back in my day. There were maybe 8 AP classes, not the variety they have today. And all the DE/AP classes carry GPA bumps. Mathematically that’s going to increase GPAs over 4.0. I think the race to get into colleges that pushed kids to take many AP/DE classes to get the grade bump that did it.[/quote]
