[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AOPS is for kids at least above grade level in math and who are good in math, enjoy it, and it comes easy.  It’s is not for grade level or struggling kids.  RSM can accommodate all kids since they have 3 levels, not so AOPS.

AOPS draws kids gifted in math and prodigies.  Then there are kids who are doing well in advance track maths and so forth.

Do it depends on your kids ability in math OP[/quote]

Typo so not do[/quote]

So, AOPS is good for gifted or advanced kids, and RSM is good for all levels. How about kumon Math & Mathanasium, are they for gifted/advanced kids or kids of all levels? [/quote]

I get the distinct feeling that kumon and Mathnasium are weaker versions RSM. They have more levels, like RSM, but require that you visit the program more frequently. RSM is once a week for 2 hours and has homework. The classes are limited to 12 kids. I am not sure how kumon and Mathnasium work because we didn't look at them. I have had the impression that they are used more by families that are interested in catching kids up or trying to help kids develop fundamentals. RSM works so that kids in the lowest program move up levels over time. [/quote]
