[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And in response to one of the posters re BA, fyi the AOPS Pre-Algebra text is a single tome — no more Grog and other monsters. My kid is enjoying the class, but feels a little nostalgic about not having the monsters anymore :) [/quote] I felt there was a lot of overlap between BA 5A/5B and 6A/6B. My kid had done 5A/5B in 4th grade and 6A in 5th but skipped into Algebra instead of taking 6b. It was never an issue for them, but it may not have been optimal. [/quote] The risk there is that Intro Algebra ("7") is a bit too much, which means Intermediate Algebra 2 ("9") will be a bunch too much. This is a common complaint among AOPS students who get through Intro Algebra early. This is fine for students who only want equal or better than the regular school curriculum, but not great for students who want to do all of the AOPS curriculum into Olympiad depth. How far has your kid gone since Algebra?[/quote]
