I don't think that classes should be weighed in highschool. It is your choice on which classes you want to take. If you choose to take a college class in highschool that is your choice to take a harder class. You will be getting college credit for it anyway, so that should be enough credit for taking the class anyway. If somebody wants to take shop classes they can and get the same credit as the people who are taking English classes. That is their interest, so they should not get less credit for doing something that interests them. People may think that the other students are getting more homework in their classes, but tough luck for them because that's what they chose to do. So if you are worried about getting more credit for your classes you should just be quiet and deal with your choices you made.

I think that classes should be waved because some students only take easy classes and get on the honor roll. Colleges look at things like your GPA and class ranking. So When a student is taking really hard college classes or even just harder classes and gets B's they will be ranked lower than the student who only takes easy classes. I think that if they don't weigh classes they shouldn't even have things like the honor roll or the top in the class. Weighing the classes will help the kids that are stressing out about their GPA dropping because they aren't doing as good because of the hard classes they are taking. I know people who's GPA's used to be 4.0's but they took a lot of hard college classes and then the person who is ranked number 1 out of the grade has barley taken any hard classes.

Classes should be weighed. Colege classes are going to be harder than a high school level class. A "b" in a college class should be thought as an "A" in a high school setting. There is a lot of work that goes into a college class. It should be rewarded. It looks bad on a report card if someone has a "b" or a "c" in a college class but really it shoud be looked at as a higher grade than it really is. Students have a tuff time relizing this and it brings their self-esteem down. They then try less and get a worse grade.

Classes need to be weighed. An individual could have much more intelligence than another but his or her GPA may not show it because of the differences in classes. A person could be denied access to get into things like NHS or some college programs because of thier GPA going down due to taking harder classes whereas someone else could take much easier classes and get in. A person could take classes like woods and quilting and have a 4.0 GPA while another could take college level classes and work much harder and only get a B bringing down their GPA, when in fact they could be much more intelligent. Kids taking college level courses or advanced high school classes should get much more credit than kids who take easy high school classes
