[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since this is (DC)UM, I'm hoping someone has first hand experience. DS (9th) is finishing up Calc BC this year and will score a 5. That leaves us with the option of AP Stats next year, MV and Linear Algebra at Howard in 11th and possibly classes at GW (Lin Alg for math majors and a formal proof based class) in 12th. DS is reluctant to do AP Stats and wants to do MV/Lin Alg at one of the OSSE consortium colleges, which would mean looking for 4 more semesters of math to fill at Howard/GW/Georgetown. Has anyone in DC gone through something similar with their kids in DCPS, where the highest math offering is Calc BC? How did dual enrollment work out specifically for these math classes?[/quote] Coming from a parent whose DD took calc BC in 9th too, have him take AP stats. While it might not seem especially challenging, it’s pretty useful and any STEM-oriented kid will benefit from having a basic knowledge of statistics.[/quote]
