Three??[/quote]

Are you the same person in the longer HS magnet thread who is shocked that magnet students get Bs?  LOL[/quote]

The person who said that was a magnet parent. Also it’s irrelevant to the above post. What are you even talking about??[/quote]

First, you only need to use one question mark.  Really, it suffices.

Second, there’s another lengthy thread on HS magnets already in this forum.  In it, a PP was sincerely surprised to hear that kids in middle school magnet programs get Bs.  Truly.  The whole “Three??” had a very similar tone.

I saw a breakdown on magnet HS gpa's somewhere not too long ago. I remember only 19 of 100 kids had an unweighted 4.5 or higher.

On the one hand this forum insists that everything gets all As and getting all As is no big deal. On the other they say that it’s common for magnet students not to get all As. It’s not. That is perpetuated by one magnet parent here whose kid is struggling in computer science.[/quote][/quote]
