[quote=Anonymous]First of all, I agree that there is a big difference between what courses you need to graduate and what grades you earned in high school. When I went to college I could use AP credits, or even a placement exam, to waive out certain course distribution requirements, but of course that did not mean that my grade from that class in high school was averaged into my college GPA. Second, it's not even clear to me that these classes are even required to graduate high school. A kid who takes calculus in high school has no need to take any other math classes to graduate, right? So if she takes algebra in 7th grade and calculus in 11th grade why would algebra be part of her high school transcript? Same thing with foreign languages-- if you don't even need them to graduate then why make them high school classes at all?[/quote]
