[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the benefit for kids (outlier or not) taking IM at grade 5? -be prepared for math competition? finish math earlier so that they have more time to do other things in high school?[/quote] No matter what, you must do 4 years of math at HS. So, you don't really buy yourself anything by doing IM in 5th, and please remember that it is exceedingly rare to hit IM by that point. The regular accelerated math track at MCPS puts kids in AP Calculus in 11th grade, which is sufficient for all but the absolute outliers. [/quote]
