[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be great if the county just had a more rigorous Honors physics class, but they don't. At least if your kid takes this as a freshman, colleges won't expect very high scores.[/quote] You absolutely have no idea but just had to spout nonsense, right?[/quote] My child took Honors Physics first and had a lot of fun, getting A's. Then he took AP Physics 1. He said that Honors Physics did not prepare him well for AP Physics, despite being a really solid math student. He is usually a reliable reporter. Perhaps Honors Physics is taught in a more rigorous manner at other schools, but I thought that the county had a standardized curriculum.[/quote] Also, when I was in high school, the Honors level science classes were sufficient preparation to do well on the SAT Achievement Tests (now called SAT Subject Tests) without any extra study. That does not seem to be the case at my DS's MCPS school.[/quote]
