[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the ease/difficulty level of these two similar?[/quote] (This is about the online version of AoPS, and a MS version of Algebra IH taught in VA): AoPS is harder in its problems, has more interesting problems, but involves far fewer problems and overall takes less time. AoPS involves mathematical writing assignments to be typed in LaTeX that are graded by a human. Covers a few more areas (such as complex numbers). School Algebra IH involves a lot more problems, all of which are just below the level of being interesting. Takes more time due to daily, repetitive homework. There is no mathematical writing practice. But provides practice opportunities for timed tests and quizzes. Elides complex numbers and involves no proofs (not even deriving the quadratic formula). It is best to have your kid take both if you have the opportunity.[/quote]
