[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares about acceleration? I was a top student in Europe, as was my husband, who got a phd from Stanford in a stem field, and we never got any acceleration. What nonsense. If you want acceleration get a tutor. And I doubt your kid really needs it.[/quote] I don't care about acceleration EXCEPT if you're not taking algebra by 8th grade, you're not taking calculus in high school. Calculus in high school is pretty much required for admission to any top50 university in 2022 and certainly any top100 engineering school. Search the college board for this-- it's been discussed at length by people going through the process, talking to college advisors, etc. So yeah, I don't care about "acceleration" but I'd rather not close all these doors in 8th grade.
