She could do all that my S did but we’d all go nuts trying to get there. Definitely not worth it. The process is too arbitrary to invest that kind of angst. I also look back and see that S’ high school years weren’t completely enjoyable. Some of this did have to do with the quality of teachers - hit and miss. Not sure that honors level will have the cream of the crop but at least there isn’t the extra anxiety of a giant standardized test at the end.
@Picklenut totally agree too that these are different times. Even the fittest I think have their struggles. I know in our area this is especially true for girls for some reason and I have read the same. I’m totally here for your approach!
