During advising, knowledge of a student's standardized-exam score helps.
Knowledge of college grades helps, but not as much as it used to. Knowledge
of high school grades helps even less. I was under the impression we were
discussing this because we are asking if there is anything we can do to make
this situation better. If not, so be it. But let's not blow it off by
saying "life is unfair."
I had a class where all but one were getting an A; the one was
getting a B. Nobody said anything to me.
I had another class where all were failing except one; the one was
getting a D. I was read the riot act by the principal and told that
this situation was completely unacceptable. I like my job so I
bumped up the grades.
