[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are counselors really on top of this? My 9th grader has never mentioned this and I haven’t heard it either. To plan for consecutive electives, you almost need to know before 9th grade. If it’s as strict as it seems, there is going to be mass chaos as these grades get closer to graduation. The kids already only get 7 classes a year. We got 8 but didn’t have standard study hall, which these kids have. It’s really sad that they can’t just choose their electives as they please. [/quote] I don't understand why they'd even care. An advanced diploma is a thing at graduation and for about 5 minutes afterwards. I'd rather my kid choose courses with an eye towards balancing college and their interests. If that leads to an advanced diploma great, if they decided to double up on math or science instead, that's fine too. No college is going to tell a kid that they should have taken art 2 instead of multivariable [/quote]
