[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of classes like this in public school. APUSH, AP sciences. Average grades are B at end of year. [/quote] I went to a big three and my kids are in MCPS and…no. Just no. They are taking lots is APs and it is very doable to get all As or close to all As. I would have preferred them to be at my alma mater or similar but 100k plus per year for two kids is not in our budget[/quote] Agreed. It's very possible to get APs in MCPS. You do the work, there is a good chance that you get an A. Plus they don't gate keep who takes the APs. You have a lot of kids in these classes who shouldn't be taking them. Right there is plenty of the 50% of the class that doesn't get an A. The private being talked about gate keeps the student body and then they further gatekeep the AP (or other top) classes (it's really hard to even be approved to take them) and then they gatekeep the As.
