[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Confused - how many AP/IB classes do these kids take? Do they take a bunch sophomore and freshman year? How do you even possibly have a 4.3 at the end of junior year [/quote] My kids are at W-L and took Kid 1 9th - 0 10th - 2 11th - 3 12th -5 GPA end of junior year = 4.1 (end of 12th= 4.2) Kid 2 9th - 1 10th - 2 11th - 3 12th - 5 GPA end of junior year = 4.0 Another class or two in 9th-10th, 4 instead of 3 in 11th and mainly As (mine got a mix of As and Bs) makes a 4.3 very possible. Their schedules, especially for 11th were on the lighter side among their friends, which seems ridiculous to me, but I insisted that they limit to "only" 3 AP/IB classes. Our counselor said this schedule would be marked "very demanding", a step below the top rating of "most rigorous." Both have ADHD and DD has a time-consuming EC so I didn't want them to overload themselves in junior year. [/quote]
