[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You just don't want low grades. It's not worth the trade off so be careful. Schools say they value rigor over GPA but they kinda don't. Excessive rigor at the expense of grades is a very bad idea. Obviously you need decent rigor.[/quote] take care but don't take easy classes just to get As if the student is competent and interested in the more challenging material. Thing is, they actually will go off and enroll in college classes and will be at a disadvantage if they have not learned some of the material in high school.[/quote] You really want to get As or mostly As with a baseline of decent rigor. If the kid can get As with intense rigor and is happy; fine. If not ease up on the rigor. Very high rigor and all Bs or even a C is a sub optimal outcome [/quote] I disagree if they are easy As. Easy As indicate a missed opportunity to me to have leaned higher level material.[/quote]
