Great, so let’s throw some kids into these harder AP courses that they have no business in so they can fail miserably and not learn half what they would have learned in a class that was to their level.

If the kids were given a more rigorous curricula starting in first grade, by the time they got to high school the AP level courses would not be so daunting.

I am also a big supporter of rigorous occupational courses for juniors and seniors who choose to go that direction. I want a well trained car mechanic just like I want a well trained doctor.
