[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every college does it differently, so there is really no reason to fret about it. Your kid should take the classes in high school that they want to take and do as well in them as they can. There is no single answer or formula.[/quote] Ok, but a B or B+ in a stem AP class . . . it seems like the prevailing view is that any top school is off the table. Kid is told to "challenge yourself" and is doing just that. But that seems to not matter if anything less than an A in those classes will automatically disqualify them from good colleges. So maybe it's better they stay in honors and get As? And then what if there is no honors? So for precalc and calc, there is no "honors" at our school. It's AP or "gened."[/quote] The top schools want As. Period. [/quote]
