Mos tof the CircuitRunners are in teh magnet program at our School. This is one of the toughest programs in the country and our magnet was ranked number 5 in the nation amongst all other schools in the country.
I am not going to lie, the grades of most build team people drop a little but we can usualyl pull them up. Most of us pack our 1st smester with tough classes and then try and get a sslack as posible 2nd semester. My 2nd sem. next year will probably be AP Chem, AP Gov, AP Econ., and AP Lit. My grades will suffer a bit, but I feel that I myself have the choice to make. I would rather have FIRST and maybe make 3 A's and 1 B than have straight A's and no FIRST in my senior year.

But the CircuitRunners have a strict policy that states that everyone must have all B's or better to build or travel. Our mentors spnd a long time looking up teh grades of the 100+ of us that there are.
