[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have always assumed a B in an AP class is fine for schools outside the top 20. Is this incorrect? [b]How do normal smart kids (not geniuses) get all As in multiple APs, do varsity sports, volunteer, etc. ?[/b] Do they even have time for going out with friends, dating, watching TV? [/quote] Some districts basically don't give grades less than Bs, even in AP courses. DCPS is one--kids will get at least a B for effort. Public school is not all equal. [/quote] Which is why not many kids from some of the schools get into the most selective school even with “high GPA”.[/quote]
