[quote=Anonymous]08:34 again - also, if it's for this current school year, we're Oct 30th. It's highly unlikely MCPS will let a student parachute into Algebra 2 right now. They can also be a bit finicky with placement tests: when DD did her placement test to attend Algebra 1, the questions were ABOUT algebra 1, and she needed to get them all right. I was expecting pre-algebra questions, just to assess whether she was prepared, but no. I've heard that the placement test and decisions are entirely at the school's discretion, however. If I were your math coordinator, I would insist on a geometry test and expect full mastery, then assess her mastery of the first quarter of algebra 2. But since it's a graduation requirement, I don't think they'll allow your kid to skip Geometry.[/quote]
