[quote=Anonymous]No I don’t think that there would be a similar percentage of US students that would pass them and certainly not students in the FCPS system. Why, lack of opportunity for students gifted in math to progress at their own pace and the courses offered by FCPS AP Calcs, AP Stat are so watered down to be almost meaningless. I get it, it is hard to find good math teachers, so the options for upper level math courses are limited but the primary reason for weak math classes is the desire to lower the ceiling so students don’t feel bad. Look some kids are gifted in math, some kids aren’t. FCPS has a budget larger than some small countries. It should facilitate letting those students gifted in math to reach their full potential at their pace. If we don’t then other countries that choose to invest in their best and brightest will lead the world. [/quote]
