[quote=Anonymous]I don't think a GDS C is an A at Sidwell, but Sidwell is definitely the toughest grading high school in the area. There are plenty of teachers at Sidwell who simply do not award grades of A, and many others award them sparingly. And yes, if you slack off in any way at all, you can easily get a C or D. I have heard that colleges bump Sidwell's grades to reflect that difficulty when they calculate GPAs -- a half points or more. So a 3.5 averages is easily seen as 4.0 and even higher if the grade is in an advanced class at Sidwell. [/quote]
