[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't precalc just regular math, probably for college-bound seniors who have no particular love of math? (My kid told me it was just a cash grab by the College Board, but there's got to be more to it than that, right?)[/quote] Lol, no. Your kid has it right. The may claim they are other reasons, but the College Board is almost as venal as the colleges themselves.[/quote] Do you think colleges will fall for it? I can't imagine they're going to give college credit for a non-college-level course. And I can't imagine that taking "AP Precalc" will actually be considered the most rigorous course of study. [/quote] It’s the only option between Algebra 2 and Calculus at my kid’s school, so it’s mostly sophomores on the most rigorous track. Not concerned about the credit, personally, it was just the only option available.[/quote]
