[quote=Anonymous]OP, This is a tough one for many parents! Good problem to have, though! I had two kids qualify, one chose Algebra honors and the other chose Math 7 Honors. Both worked out great. I would rely less on IIAT and SOL scores and think about these factors: How much your child enjoys math (not just good at it) How mature your child is (organization, motivation) Whether you are thinking at all about TJ (pretty much need to be in Algebra in 7th) Either way - your choice is not irrevocable. Kids who take Algebra in 7th and end up struggling can retake in 8th (I know several kids who did this and despite initial embarrassment, they were better off) OR your child can catch up in summer school (again, not ideal, but can work). Good luck![/quote]
