[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When did mostly Bs become so terrible? At our rigorous private, Bs are respectable especially during COVID distance learning. It has been a rough ride for so many and so many had diminished learning growth.

I agree with PP who encouraged honesty about extenuating circumstances with death in family.

Good luck OP.  May your son find the best fit for him. There a some very good private schools in our area that do not have single digit admit rates and welcome different ability levels.[/quote]

Its a bit surprising a top private would take kids from public with B's.  Nothing wrong with it, but those are not particularly good grades, especially when publics were so watered down in virtual last year.  It was nearly impossible to get a B or C.[/quote]

Kid ended 7th grade with all As except one B in final grades. 8th grade term one 4 As, 2 Bs[/quote]

If your kid was doing Geometry in 7th or hard classes, I could get it but that's not very impressive given how painful virtual was last year.  You basically show up and get 50%[/quote]
