<p>My kid’s schoold does penalize Students With A’s in Non-Weighted Classesize. My 10th grade d got straight A for 7 courses. Due to the Marching band is not honor course, her rank drop from 1 to 7. She wants to continuing taking marching band…, not sure should we just not taking the marching band credit (which will not show on the transcript, pass and fail is not an option) or just keep the credit and forget about the class rank, so the college can see from her transcript that she does have the passion for music? Her dream schoo is Yale. Please help. Any feedback is appreicated.</p>
