[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's all a matter of perspective. Do they inflate or is my DD at Big 3 subject to teacher egotism and grade deflation? In the game that colleges play, it seems that GPA is more important now than ever, especially as our school no longer offers AP. And my daughter works inappropriately (IMHO) and frankly, worryingly, long hours. To what end? (Yes - I'm anxious!)[/quote] All great questions. We too deal with the power imbalance the teachers now have given no test scores, mainly subjective grading, grade deflation, and 3-4 hours of project or reading work per night. To what end? To show up at $70k/a year college and find the first two years easy and duplicative? What a racket. [/quote]
