LAC that is really easy for the non prepared

Dad here: This forum rejects our family’s attempts to create a new account saying “you can’t post under two accounts” So I am asking this question for my son. He went to a bad high school where he easily got a 3.8 unweighted gpa, 4.0 weighted, and all the honors they have, which is not much honors.

He’s not unaware of his problems, which shows he’s smart just not learned. For anot…

He just needs to go somewhere where it’s going to be easy, and a non drinking non partying kid can get a good gpa in the first year even when he’s not prepared at all, has read less than two books cover to cover in his life, and while mathy has many weakspots that are not his fault. He aced AP calc at our easy school (the class, not the AP exam which we both bombed), for example, but can’t handle the algebra of an online AP Physics 1 class he’s taking. He’s not unaware of his problems, which shows he’s smart just not learned. For another example, this morning I was saying something abou…
