[quote=Anonymous]As others have said, AP Pre-Calculus is a waste for a freshman because it's designed for kids who will *only* reach pre-calculus in HS and therefore it is not going to prepare your kid for AP Calculus AB or BC in 10th grade. The other thing to know is that the hard part of APs for freshmen isn't usually the classwork, it's the study skills. Most MCPS kids have never taken a big year-long cumulative assessment, let alone more than one in a two-week period. I would start with two, and have one of them be pretty easy (AP Gov or AP CS Principles) just to build the muscle of studying 9 months of material at once. [/quote]
