[quote=Anonymous]Hi All, Hoping you can weigh in. My DD is currently in Math 7 HN and doing well, but currently at a low A. She does have to work somewhat hard to maintain this. She doesn’t enjoy math and struggles with word problems and more application type stuff. I usually have to help her with homework at some points. Would it be better for her to take regular Algebra or Algebra 1 HN next year? I want to make sure she is confident and has a solid A in Algebra as it will be a high school course. But I also know honors give the grade bump. I have heard that it’s harder to raise your GPA without honors classes. Based on my older child’s experience with honors math classes, I don’t think she would do Geometry Honors. I know geometry is quite different from Algebra. Would it be worth it to do Algebra Honors at this point? Or just do regular knowing we will get off the honors track later? [/quote]
