[quote=Anonymous]OP-I think it's both about math aptitude but also maturity. It's considered a HS level class. If the kid is great and passionate about math-maybe. But acceleration is not the same as being advanced in math. Algebra I is foundational. It is better to not be as accelerated and have a great grasp for later advanced math courses. I've read that a lot upper level HS math teachers and college professors are dumbfounded by kids in calculus classes who have a limited grasp of the basics. [/quote]
