[quote=Anonymous]There are several Pre-Calc options, not all of which are available to every student. There's plain old Pre-Calc, Honors Pre-Calc, AP Pre-Calc and then the magnet program classes -- Magnet Pre-Calc (basically Algebra 2 & Pre-Calc together over 3 semesters, with additional depth/enrichment) & Magnet Functions (basically the same over 2 semesters -- this is really difficult for nearly all 9th-graders, even those in the magnets; there's a number of magnet students each year who pull back to Magnet Pre-Calc). I would guess that most high schools offering AP Pre-Calc (a newer addition to the AP beastiary) would do it in lieu of Honors Pre-Calc to manage teaching assignments/class sizes, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was someplace with both. I don't know if the AP version is considered more rigorous or not, but it would offer college credit. Wouldn't mind hearing others' experiences, there.[/quote]
