[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DD takes both geometry and algebra 2 in 8th grade. If she doesn't get into TJ (semifinalist so far), she'll be taking both pre-Calc and AP statistics in 9th grade of our base high school. The school told her she can take AP statistics in 9th, if she wants to.[/quote] There is also no good reason to do this. It is a transparent bid to do something the family thinks is better to get into TJ. The school does not favor these arrangements and these kids are the ones whose parents are whining about hard tests and bad grades at TJ.[/quote] It's not the family in our case - totally between our child and her schools. Her 7th grade algebra teacher referred her to take 2 classes in 8th grade. This year, she asked high school if she can skip pre-Calc because she already knows it, and they said she can't, but can take AP statistics together with it. I'm glad the schools are being flexible with the talented kids.[/quote]
