[quote=Anonymous]It is the same in terms of coverage in the sense that all topics from the FCPS Algebra 1 course will be covered in the AOPS course. However, AOPS is orders of magnitude harder/deeper. Basically, in FCPS you are told these are the Vieta formulas, etc. and in AOPS you are shown how they are derived, and then you are expected to be able to apply that knowledge and understanding to solve problems. FWIW my kid took the AOPS course while taking Alg 1 AAP/HN and we discussed exactly this difference. Hope this helps.[/quote]
