<p>^Keilexandra, you’re making a lot of assumptions. The 9-10 student IS the val, and lots of other kids DID take more APs. The math DOES work out. I know it does, because this is a current reality. If the 9-10 student is an all 100s student and the 13-14 student has a lot of 92s or 94s, or what have you, the math DOES work out. In a huge, rigorous public. Maybe you’re generalizing your own high school’s experience to be everybody’s high school experience.</p>
