[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rigor is king. [/quote] Nope. Depends on your school. If you're at a high school where 20 or 50 or 100 kids have a 4.0 UW then rigor is king. If you're at a high school where nobody has a 4.0 then it's often best to take less rigor and get a really high GPA. I have seen kids with very high rigor but GPA a step down (say 3.8 vs 3.9+) get far inferior admissions. [/quote] Again context matters here. Are you talking about an elite private high school where even the second level students classes could considered high rigor?? If so, I could see that. But, looking at OP's description of Max vs Normal rigor, the students are not in the same ballpark.[/quote]
