I can’t read through all of the comments–although I’m interested–because I can feel my blood pressure mounting and my stress level rising after just a few! And my son has been out of high school for 2 years now! But we ran into a situation in which there were 2 sections of an AP history class taught by 2 different teachers, but they used the same exam on the same day. My son got the highest grade of both classes, a 75, but was with the teacher who did not curve, and thus got a “C” on the test. In the other classroom the highest grade was a 74, but that teacher curved, so that student got an “A.” So you have the ridiculous outcome where someone with a lower test score got a higher grade than the person with the higher test score, and for the life of me I could not get anyone at the high school to even acknowledge that it made no sense! So frustrating, and I count my blessings every day to be done with that school!
