Kid wants to take algebra 1. What are the chances if we appeal the middle school.
86 IOWA is where DD didn’t put lottery answers on questions she didn’t solve.

This is spot on for my DD as well with below cutoff Iowa score and 578 SOL. Interested in her chances as well. Could someone post their experiences with MS name, please? Did you ask the ES math teacher to recommend?

I am the above PP. My child has been accepted!
Thanks to this forum! It was a long shot but they tested her and found ready.

Is it the 6th grade Sol or the 7th grade SOL that is required?

You have to take and pass advanced the 7th grade SOL in 6th grade in order to take Algebra in 7th grade.

Parents on this board most likely have kids in Advanced Math or AAP and so their 6th graders are taking the 7th grade SOL.

It will be based on the school. Some schools will allow more students in if they need to fill the seats to make a full class or two.

The only tests that matter are the SOL and IAAT

Iowa matters more than SOL

I wish I had known this. My current 7th grader who is taking Math 7HN this year is so bored in math. But didn’t qualify for Algebra based on IAAT score.

You can always do enrichment, like the AoPS prealgebra book or RSM if you have more time

This is the same spot didn’t make Iowa cut off so could you please explain what type of test middle school has tested to found ready and got accepted.

There is no test in middle school. You either pass both the tests in 6th or you don’t. The two tests are the SOL and IAAT/Iowa.

I think they're asking because a PP said that "they tested her and found (him/her) ready".

As far as I know, there is no further testing, as decisions on math placement are made over the summer. PP, if you have a child with a high SOL score but below cutoff IAAT, appeal to the MS. Chances are good they'll make it. I have posted here before that DD's MS took kids that missed the cutoff for IAAT, SOL, or both, into Algebra I. They even have one kid that missed both cutoffs by a large margin in Algebra I.

What would be needed to take algebra in 6th grade?
