That is true, but depending on what classes the students take, someone that takes all “easy” classes vs the AP classes can have a higher GPA. OR depending on how the stupid administration applies the AP score, an AP class may not give full AP credit. This happened to one of my sons. His AP Biology class was for three blocks, so the first block didn’t get AP credit, that was considered unfair..... to the other students NOT taking AP Biology. My sons took all five AP classes offered at their high school and scored 3’s or above. When my son was not given the Salutatorian status and a girl that took mostly general ed classes had a slightly higher GPA, due to that AP Bio - needless to say, this momma bear went in loaded for bear. Thankfully that administration is no longer at the high school.
So, did momma bear win?
