bioearthmom:

There are 2 students that have identical number of AP/IB classes, but one student has taken more non-AP/IB classes. The student who has taken more classes has a lower GPA than the student who has taken the minimum number of classes. When both students are straight A, it us unfair for the student taking the fewer classes to be valedictorian. In fact the student taking fewer classes could have a B and still out GPA the other student. So you get penalized for wanting to learn more.



Yeah, thats pretty much the exact same that is happening to me at my school.
