[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The private kids still take the AP exams, just not the classes.[/quote] That is just dumb. More pressure on the kids to study independently for AP exams. Private schools appear to have overplayed their hand. I’m glad my youngest kid is a senior and we are leaving this ridiculous system. Parents are just lemmings who blindly follow along and repeat whatever nonsense their school feeds them [/quote] Most high school classes at DC independents might not bear the AP designation, but they teach students what they need to know on the AP exams. What these schools do not do, though, is teach to the test or teach their students various strategies for taking standardized exams. As for the rest of your post, do you always speak in hyperbole?[/quote]
