    And _what_ does a B average in HS mean these days?  
    By definition, it means the kid has one A for every C he got.  That means 
his weak performance in two math courses can be balanced by two A's in phys 
ed.
    Of course, you have plenty of B average students.  In my experience, few 
college-bound kids get anything less than a B in HS, even though many soon 
show they are abysmally prepared for college.  Do they deserve scholarships?
