[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shooting for a top school (not HYP but still selective) from a solid public. Top rigor, good ECs, essays, recommendations - everything else considered, is one B okay? Two? Would love to hear instances where non-athlete students still received acceptances with a few hard earned B or B+ grades.[/quote] I don't think a few (or even several) B's are bad at all at a very rigorous high school that doesn't grade inflate. But if your kid goes to a HS that you know is grade inflationary, it's a different matter. If more than half the class gets As easily, a B at that grade inflating school is really a C at a non-inflating school. Does that makes sense? Basically, just like all As are not alike (it's school by school) it's the same with Bs. So hard to answer this outside of the specific context of your kid's school.[/quote]
