[quote=Anonymous]My kid with dyscalculia (specific learning disability in math) ended up on a track that took him to AP Calc BC in 12th. It was his only class, of all his school career, where he struggled. It taught him how to handle a challenging (for him) subject matter. My kid without dyscalculia is taking Honors Geo in 7th, will get bused to the high school in 8th for Honors Algebra 2, and take whatever is available in math in high school, since our state requires math classes all four years of high school. She is considering a STEM major and has a math-y sort of brain. I would think that your kid can handle the fastest track, OP. When in doubt, take it, and re-assess later. I've learned from this year's college admission process to push for the most advanced courses, and when they don't get you in your reach colleges, at least you get significant merit aid for the target or safeties. Which, considering some colleges are 85k+ a year today, is nothing to sneeze at. [/quote]
