Wow! Bless this family. Incredibly hard work. The definition of proud parenting.
Sadly it wasn’t hard work. She got this based on skin color and not merit.
@@HairyBottom Maybe for different people, sure, but with Asian families you can observe it's usually the merit and merit alone.
@@HairyBottom Why are you lying? She achieved this incredible accomplishment because of her merit. Asians (which includes Indians) do not benefit from affirmative action. Stop being a jealous hater.
I love seeing this being apart of this generation as a 15 y/o going to the same school coming from the 8th grade. God bless anyone who sees this. 🙏
Geesh smart girls & that's a real proud parent moment 💚
What an amazing accomplishment congratulations 🎉
Well done mom and dad! Congratulations to the whole family.
Congratulations girl !!!! ❤❤❤
Great work, Congratulations! 🎊
Thanks
❤ this. So happy for them.
How is a GPA of 11 when 4 is the highest possible?
I'm guessing she partook in whatever Tampa's equivalent of "early college" is. Our high school's highest point weight was 6 for AP classes, with 5 for honors, and 4 for standard; but our early college was a separate thing where you just go straight to college out of middle school, then take "remedial" high school level courses as you go. So, I would assume they count college courses towards their high school GPAs, just at a higher weight -- e.g. an upper level math course like modern algebra/group theory would have a really high weight if you aced it, whereas kiddie pre-calc would only have a 4 or 5 attached to it.
Congratulations!!🎉
The crazy part is, I’m pretty sure I know this families Son. I went to school with him, and he’s also very smart.
another record in the making
Indians living in other countries some how love maths , other Indians hate it
Americans* They are not citizens of India
GPAs are getting out of hand
Exactly! Puts so much pressure on other children.
I bet their parents had them in Kumon while American parents are sending their kids to get concussions at football camp. We need to change our priorities as parents
Yeah I've never actually known anyone who had a concussion who only played high school football or less so that's a little
Dramatic
Come on! How? Even with weighted AP courses how do you get an 11? They are a grade point average and not a grade point total right? Do we not use a 4.0 scale anymore. I have questions!! This must be the common core math calculations.

@@RangersGirlJackie99 it's still na average and if the highest available for whatever reason is 6 than the highest GPA attainable is 6.
@bri8778 I said for _me_ that's how it was. Obviously, Tampa does it differently, where college courses count towards high school GPA at a much higher weight. Clearly 6 is not the max here.
WOW Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
congrats 🎓🎉🎈
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
What a wonderful piece of news God bless every student that helped bring the GPA up with the school. That is wonderful news to hear … however, I wish I could give them props but I CANNOT at this time… for firing the running coach because he had an issue with a student wanting to compete in two things and letting him know that they were spreading themselves too thin and it can’t be done… and because they go to administrative and cry like a big baby, like a little tattletale and plus cause he has prostate cancer, you’re gonna throw him under a bus ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I got NO respect for it !!!
God forbid a time like that ever comes for anyone of you teachers or faculty members you’re gonna REAP EVERYTHING YOU SOW by doing this to this poor man - it makes me sick and it makes me ill and it makes me disgusted that you would do something to somebody like this, Who’s been with the school for as long as he has and has helped them achieve such success, and then you take away his Hall of Fame ?!?!?!
Ya’ll should be ashamed of yourselves. God sees what you’ve done to this man he hears his cries and sees his tears. I’d hate to be the one who caused this man to loose ALL HE HAS WORKED SO HARD FOR With integrity and honesty, which is something you faculty members obviously don’t have - God help everyone you then shame on you and Lord have mercy on your soul for causing someone to STUMBLE when you stand in front of Him
Holy cow. You have to like math to be good at it i think. I always hated math because i always sucked at it lol
This family is the Alabama of academics
Awesome!
So what university did she get into?
Wow super great 🎉 ❤
🙏🏽✨🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
I bet the belt was the motivtion for her.
Gpa doesn’t count these days.
Well done to you and your family with all your success. You did it your way.👍👍🇨🇦
Thanks
🎉
Thats an L my grade average is like 92.
I am glad her favorite subjects are math and the real science courses and not bs woman’s studies or lgbt nonsense
Bs women studies , huh?
Excellent parenting. We need more families like this
Congratulations to the Kamar family! Most of India’s background are clever
very true!
Indians and CHINESE will be the future
I totally agree.
They are American
Right. E.g. India is the largest producer of medical doctors in the world. And the Prime Minister of Britain, Rishi Sunak is of Indian descent. And, Indians head 3 of the 5 largest corporations in the world.
Most Asian families education begins in utero!!!!!
congrats! this is gonna do nothing for her though! but good job for working on nothing!
When you continue to lower the threshold this will keep happening. Kids these days are as dumb as it gets.
Good for her I guess.
U can look at it like that or that those people worked hard & were more disciplined than the other kids in her class..
Well that just goes to show how smart she really is...
