[quote=Anonymous]If you’re definitely looking for private AND for next year, which means applying late, I’d apply to a LOT of schools and then start asking hard questions after acceptance. I feel like most schools talk to talk on acceleration, but then when it’s time to put a schedule together things get wishy washy. I’d actually recommend not drilling down too much in the application process because 1. You’ll get meaningless empty promises and 2. If you push too hard and seem high maintenance that will hurt your odds of admission. Once you’re admitted, then you can work on getting the details of what they can provide for actual class options for next year (in writing, from the head of the math department and upper school). Also, you’d obviously want a plan going forward for a kid taking calculus freshman year as to how they’ll manage 10th-12th. Most schools only have 1 year past BC calc available on campus[/quote]
