[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Poor children. The level of competition and pressure (real or perceived) is insane. An A- is not the end of the world, but it is important they know the material for midterm and later classes. It’s actually good they’re having this experience now so they can learn how to seek help and study if that’s a skill they haven’t mastered. That’s often the case for students who “don’t have to study.” Good luck![/quote] But they have an A- because the teacher is giving extra points for completing assignements/etc. They have a B if you go based on test scores, which is what happens in a college course typically. So if they don't improve to an A/A- on tests, I'd have them go to AB and slow down and actually learn the material. It's not a race, especially with Math, where each level builds upon the previous one (typically). Taking AB in junior year is still 2 years ahead in Math. Plenty of rigor for anyone, especially a humanities major [/quote]
