[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If only other parents would share that their kids struggle after getting GPAs in HS above 4.0, maybe parents would wake up and smell the coffee. The HS grades are based on practices that don’t exist in college. I’m talking about about retakes. If your kid’s high grades come from retakes, make sure you understand that this won’t be happening in college. Plus most college classes have midterms and finals. If your kid has never had them, they will need to seek out help to learn how to study. Public schools are not really preparing kids for college. They just like to brag about their high graduation rate. [/quote] My kid had a 4.44 in HS and currently sits at at 3.0 in college. Us not because of retakes. She rarely had a situation that she had a retake, maybe calc. The reason it’s so different is purely the lack of structure, she herself would say that.[/quote]
