[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC did compacted math in ES and is now in the top math stratum in MS. DC earns comfortable Bs in math and As in absolutely everything else. DC is not (not, not, not) a STEM kid and has never had any interest in anything even remotely resembling STEM. Do we pull back a level or two in grades 7-8 in order to enhance the chances of easier As later? Probably not particularly worried about strength of math schedule given that DC will major in something not-STEM in college anyway. Are there caveats or success stories that people can share?[/quote] One thing to consider is what HS your kid will end up in. If it's a lower rated HS, you may want to keep her in the existing trajectory. Just thinking ahead from a college perspective and also who she will be in classes with. We're at a lower rated HS and glad that my kid is in the most rigorous classes available for her grade.[/quote]
