[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don’t  think you realize that most kids who get into accelerated classes are doing extra math work and taking extra  math classes like kumon, mathnaseum, beast academy/AOPS year round. While certainly there are some kids who are naturally really good at math, never supplement outside of school, and are able to qualify for advanced math and do well in those classes, but it isn’t as common.

If your child has adhd and anxiety it isn’t going to be good for them to be in classes where most if the kids have already seen the material they are learning and he hasn’t. You need to start supplementing now.

Most kids? I have two that had absolutely no extra training/classes and most of their friends parents have no indicated they have either. I’m sure a few kids do but I don’t think “most” do. OP, don’t feed into this.[/quote]

I agree - my kids are both on the "fast track" math pathway for MCPS and they have never done outside tutoring and very few people I know, at least in our area, who have kids in advanced math are doing any outside tutoring. [/quote]
