[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious about compacted math kids who are now in 9th grade. How is Honors Algebra 2 going for them? Easy? Challenging?[/quote] I don't know what algebra 2 was like before 2.0, both my DC's have had the re-written version, but it's currently a very fluffy, disorganized class and I haven't heard of it being a stumbling block for anyone. Honors pre-calc, on the other hand, was very hard for my older DC (current senior who didn't have compacted math but did have 2.0 algebra sequence). But that was a necessary correction that did ramp up the algebraic manipulation needed for calc. As of this year pre-calc, at least at our school, has been scaled back significantly. So the next question is will the lighter version of pre calc still prepare a 2.0 student for calc.[/quote]
