Re: "A" in Robotics = Lower GPA?
Our school district has the " pass-fail" (Page 5) option where students can elect within the first few days of a class to take the class such that it does not affect their GPA. It's mostly used by people who want to take AP/Dual Credit classes and are afraid of failing them. The rest of us use it for non-required classes that are not weighted so that they don't kill our GPAs. This only works for classes that aren't required for graduation. For example: I can do this with my elective rocketry class, but not my required art 1 class. The year that we had robotics as a class, I used this option and it helped tremendously.
