[quote=Anonymous]Bumping this thread as we we enter high school course selection season for 2025-2026 school year. For kids who have done basic computer programming at summer camp / after school, and strong advanced math, and took Foundations of Computer Science in 8th, what's good for CS/tech in 9th? AP CS Principles and Computer Programming 1 both seems mostly redundant, like they overlap both Foundations / extracurricular studies, and also AP CS A. So jump into AP CS A in 9th? Or do an "Engineering/Technology" (hardware/robots) in 9th, and come back to AP CS A in 10th ? For Engineering/Technology, there are also many similar but maybe alternative courses. No prerequisites besides math level: Foundations of Tech (Advanced) Foundations of Engineering and Tech (Advanced) Intro to Engineering Design ...and 3 more Advanced courses, strangely with no prerequisites. Foundations of Tech[/quote]
