[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm I wasn't going to email to ask for placement but seems like my kid needs to take Algebra intensified or geometry to have a shot at TJHSST, which is his dream. No idea if he can even get in given he didn't get placed initially but also don't want to reduce his chances already in 6th. Again I know it's a long shot school, he is just so obsessed with science [/quote] FWIW, Swanson got 4 TJHSST spots this year, and only 1 of them went to a kid who had done the pre-alg/alg 1 intensified/geometry 1 intensified track. The other 3 spots went to kids who did Math 6/pre-alg/alg 1 intensified. It used to be that you had to take geometry in 8th grade to have a shot at the TJHSST spots, but that isn't true now that TJHSST changed the admissions criteria. [/quote] How are alg 1 intensified and geo intensified different from alg 1 and geo?[/quote]
