[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your son isn’t at my children’s big3. We’ve been there for several years in the upper school through several kids, and none of the top students “don’t study.” And there are some very very bright kids. They too work their tail off. There are kids who do fine who don’t study, but they are not making straight As. [/quote] Salty.[/quote] LOL DP. I also agree it's not realistic OP is in one of the big three. Straight As are very very difficult in those rigorous schools. A- is a top grade. If a kid barely studies, for sure they will receive a low grade for class participation alone. Tons of reading assignments every night. Can't imagine they can participate at all in class if no study. For humanities classes, is there "finals" that can make up the grades? Not in mine, we have writing projects throughout the year. [/quote]
