[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What grade is she in and what kind of math student is she?  If she's taking it online to get ahead a year in math she should know that it's not very rigorous.  It's also not very time consuming, so if that's what she's looking for, that may be a plus.  If she wants to take it because she hates math and wants to fill up her regular schedule with AP art classes as a senior, this is probably the class for her.

My kid took it in the last couple of years.  There were 10 homework problems per week.  It was a strange mix of kids in the class - 8th graders through seniors. My kid (who is not at all math-y) took it as a senior and ended up having to take a one-credit trig class in college after taking a placement test. [/quote]

She's not taking it to get ahead. She's not "math-y" either.  She is taking it to make room for another class that she enjoys.  Do you think it is considered more rigorous to take it in school as oppose to online during the school year?[/quote]
