[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, if you got a B in the class and a 5 on the test and put that in your app, they won't notice?[/quote] I wonder how this works? I grew up in Michigan and there are some schools like International Academy and Detroit Country Day where[b] B students [/b]can get 4 or 5s on APs. This kind of screws them.[/quote] UM doesn't want B students, especially in the purported age of grade inflation.[/quote] But they want the A student who got a 2 on the AP? That's not great critical thinking. Obviously the A student had grade inflation and the B student had grade deflation.[/quote] Clearly they don’t think it matters. I suspect if their institutional research showed that lower AP test scores correlated with higher drop-out rates or lower grades in college, they wouldn’t have made this move. It’s worth considering that they might know more than you do about this![/quote]
