[quote=Anonymous]Op, I completely understand your question. Since you have a question, I'm glad you asked mostly because ...

Op, I am worried and concerned that there is NOT an established policy on this - system wide, school wide, Principal and Department Heard and Teacher enforced. It should be a policy. It should be transparent. Talked about with parents before students sign up for classes. This should NOT be a question you have, but it's not your fault, if you are asking. The school system has failed you if you have to ask.

The answer depends .. not on you or the parents, it depends on how the school system wants to position themselves. Requiring all to take the AP Exam so the school system can't cherry pick best results. Do they want the respect -- and it's known by college admissions -- that a "3" is a college C and therefore a high school grade of a C is given (as a best estimate calculation of student performance)

If your school has no leadership and no consistency in grading - and you have to ask this question -  that's the greatest problem of all.[/quote]
