[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Top rigor" doesn't mean the hardest class every single time you have a choice. It just means above a certain threshold. [/quote] No, it means your student is taking the most rigorous courses offered by the high school in five core subjects (UVA) and the college counselor will attest to that. [/quote] It doesn’t mean ANYTHING consistently. Every counselor interprets it differently.[/quote] Yeah I have never been clear on what the "most rigorous means." Kid A maxxed out language and humanities APs, but after Calc BC jr yr, elected to take AP Stats and AP Physics instead of multivariable. Kid B stopped a language after sophomore year (conflicted with STEM AP) but is taking multi senior year, plus AP stats and AP physics. Also a bunch of humanities APs. So which is highest rigor? Kid A? Kid B? both? neither? So which is highest rigor? [/quote]
