[quote=Anonymous]Great class taught by an excellent teacher. It favors students who show strong understanding of the material, with an ability to solve novel mathematical problems on a timed test. This is the class that matures students whi are later chosen to represent the school and, yearly, the United States on math and physics olympiads. I say that as a parent of child who chose to transfer down after 1st exam. My child could sove the problems in theory, but there was a hefty arithmetic component that proved too challenging. We were unwilling to settle for a B, likely for two years running. I think for any kid targeting UMD engineering, hold on for the ride, you will be better prepared. For any kid targeting Ivies, only stay if you are a star. Historic Blair data show no admission penalty, even to MIT, to transfer students who do well otherwise.[/quote]
