[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love the policy. My kid jwho is a unior has an uw 4.0. She says she will retake anything below 93.5. She's a good student and if that makes her happy so be it. I like the determination. [/quote] Of course she has a 4.0! 😂 Aren’t you concerned she is unprepared for challenges ahead? It is very easy to retake a test. It’s not particularly difficult to do and it’s not a testament to grit. [/quote] My DD is a freshman at a state university. No retakes in any of her classes on any of her assignments. 33% penalties for late work (1 day late) in her STEM courses. So these policies are horrible for college prep. I feel bad for the teachers who have to deal with this extra workload, and I feel bad for the college professors who are inevitably going to deal with this entitlement. [/quote] Same policy for my college kid. She said she would have rather her high school prepared her for college. [/quote]
