[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if you are talking about public school, yes, it's pretty easy to get As and Bs without much effort.[/quote]

Yes public school. So you think something’s up if a kid can’t get those grades?[/quote]

NP. Yes something is going if they can’t get As and Bs in public school non AP classes. Be in learning disability or laziness[/quote]

You know not all kids are in the 85th percentile. Someone has to be in the 50th percentile.[/quote]

An A or B in regular high school classes doesn’t take being 85th+ percentile.  All you need to do is show up, pay a reasonable amount of attention and turn in your work.  There likely isn’t even much homework to be done.  The work isn’t challenging and the instructions are pretty explicit. Even tests and quizzes are not hard if you have been present in class and paying attention. Teachers aren’t trying to trick anyone.  They have literally given the students all the info and material they need to be successful in class. The bar is pretty low.  [/quote]
