[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ I’m quite confused by the above poster, as well. Is someone trying to argue that scoring well on language APs is important to gaining admission to Ivy League-level engineering program?? I’m sure it doesn’t hurt. That said, scoring well in advanced science and math probably matters more... In any case, I think various posters have argued convincingly that Basis is not the right school for families who prioritize advanced language learning in their native tongues and who think the school should facilitate and support such learning. Agreed that neighboring suburbs (and some privates) do a better job in that area. [/quote] This is not a difficult one. It's the lack of flexibility and respect for the individual at BASIS in the pursuit of elite college admissions that posters are decrying here. Language learning at BASIS is just one example of that. I think they make a good point. If you don't, you're entitled to your opinion.[/quote]
