[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]High stats and demoralized? What does that mean?[/quote] It means mcps grade inflation, test prep and other supports to get high stats, after effect of covid remote learning, not connecting with curriculum/teachers, coasting to get whatever grace, etc One can be high stats at mcps and still be concerned that a child may not thrive in a more driven college environment. [/quote] Or it means a smart hard worker who burned out. [/quote] Also, the 80th, 90th, 95th percentile marks at those suburban powerhouse schools are just a lot higher than the national marks. As a result it’s possible to be objectively high stats while feeling like you’ll never be very good. And it doesn’t help that everyone is telling you that college will be even more demanding when, objectively, most colleges (even most T50 colleges) are less demanding. [/quote]
