[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]This makes no difference in the long run[/quote] It seems to make quite a difference in the short run. I'll take this return on investment any day. We all have different long runs including becoming a DC urban mom.[/quote] At what price? OP asks "Overload?" in her subject line. I took multivariable calculus and linear algebra at 16. In the long run, did it give me an advantage over people who took the same courses at 18? No. What matters is having a strong foundation and developing the motivation and creativity to take what you learn and do something with it. I would never suggest stopping a child who is naturally interested in math from pursuing his or interest. But overloading a child with extra classes and homework so that he can be two grades ahead seems like a waste of childhood.[/quote]
