[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Taking algebra 1 in 9th is an acceptable track, but it is the slowest math track and will keep the student from taking calculus in high school. This can have a huge impact college admissions, especially for any science, engineering, computer, or business programs. [/quote] But it will have zero impact on those interested in a humanities degree. My two older kids are both at excellent colleges pursuing International Affairs and Political Science degrees, respectively. Their math track in high school was: Algebra I (9th), Geometry (10th), Algebra II (11th), and Stats (12th). Neither had any desire to pursue a math/science degree, so they focused on the humanities.[/quote]
