[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many, probably most, MCPS high schools offer math beyond calculus. The state requires four years of math, and many kids finish calculus in 11th grade. So the school has to offer something else for 12th grade.[/quote] But a lot of times AP Statistics could be used to fill that 4th year. MVC will only be offered at a school if they have enough kids to take it, which means enough kids taking AP BC Calc in 11th grade. Some schools won't be able to support it. [/quote] Nearly every (MCPS) high school will have close to 500 or more seniors. Even if only ten percent took calculus BC in 11th grade, and then some of those 50 took Stats senior year, there would still be enough for a MVC or linear algebra class. We went to DCC open houses last year, so became familiar with various schools. Northwood offers math beyond BC and stats. If Northwood can support it, I’m sure many other schools can as well.
