[quote=Anonymous]OP, I went to a French high school. In France, hardly anyone gets a perfect grade. Marks are given so that there's always room to improve. This concept that a hard working intelligent child should always get an A is one I was introduced to when I sent my kids to MCPS! It seems weird to me, because it doesn't give them any incentive to do better. They think they've arrived already. Ridiculous. So I think your Big 3 uses the traditional educational method, which is better in my opinion. And since they're a well-known school, surely colleges and universities will be aware of exactly how much a B is worth! [/quote]
