Honors Gym - a joke, or is it legitimate?

Man, if I was a member of the adcom of any college, I would reject anyone who took a class called “Honors Gym.” It would show me they’re probably some grade grubber who held only one goal in high school: to gain the highest GPA in their class.

I always feel this sadness when I think that the purpose of high school has been dumbed down to one statement: to get into college. (Take the APs! Take the Honors! Forsake experimenting for that A!)

But then again, I’m not a member of any adcom.
