[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't a 3.5 a very high GPA at Sidwell? I only hear about how hard it is to get all As at Sidwell, and that in some classes it is rare for more than 1 kid in a class to get an A with some teachers. We are at another prep, and my son has friends at Sidwell. I get the impression from their parents that a 4.0 just doesn't happen, and on the scale of it GPAs are lower on a relative basis versus what is handed out at even other select preps. Is all of this a bristling over what is an excellent GPA?[/quote]No one said a 4.0 gpa. You did. There are many kids, black or white or green or purple, at Sidwell that have GPAs 3.0 and above. And for the record, my AA child has had an A in math classes for four years running, A in foreign language for four years running. An 'A' in a class is not impossible or unusual. Not sure who your sources are but maybe it's their kid who's is not pulling the A grade.[/quote]
