[quote=Anonymous]My son is happily situated at a great college, you are right I was railing at the artifical “musts” - “must” take world language through grade 12 (even if the student took world language AP in 11th grade), “must” take APs in all 5 core subjects (even if the student is in multivariable calculus, he still needs to take AP english classes), “must” get all As in classes (even if that means foregoing stretch in an area of interest but not natural strength). It all feels counterintuitive to the “soft” factors (curiosity, new challenges) that colleges say they themselves encourage in students. [/quote]
