[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weighting per MCPS bulletin: Grade Grade Points Regular Honors/Advanced Level A 4 5 B 3 4 C 2 3 D 1 1 E 0 0 [/quote] Wow, so MCPS gives 5 for A in honors classes. This is perfect example of GPA inflation. My DS's private only gives 4.5 for A in honors, but 5 for A in AP. How can you lump the honors classes in with the AP classes? Crazy.[/quote] It isn't crazy. The honors classes, at least at Whitman, are just as challenging as the AP classes. Kids work their butts off for those As with 5 points. Maybe Whitman is a better school than your private school.[/quote]
