[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Volume 1 and middle school contests are superfluous; not needed if the OP's kid finished all the Intro series. Also OP, there is no rigid classification between books and grades. Any kid regardless of grade can tackle material if they're ready for it and conversely there are many high schoolers who can't handle their intermediate series.

Besides the intermediate series, your kid has many other options, such as working through some of their Alcumus problems, working on past math contests, joining a math team at school if there is one, working together through a math circle book, learning programming (AoPS has an intro to python course that is quite rigorous, but your kid seems ready if they've truly completed all the intro series up through geometry).[/quote]

On the contrary. Maybe having their kid apply some of what they've learned will help reinforce their understanding and enjoyment of math. It's not like there's a race to calculus. In fact, that's probably not in any kid's best interest.[/quote]

What are you "contrary" about? Apply what they've learned where?

Are you reflexively disagreeing without reading?
