[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Physcs and Chem are both 1 semester long (condensed versions).  I think bio was a whole year but I do not remember earth/space so maybe it changed.  Someone else will chime in.[/quote]

Last I knew yes, physics and chem were 1 semester each and so was earth science in 10th but bio was 1 year long.  It involved 2.5 years of science over the first two years to prepare students for the deeper electives available in 11th and 12th grade.[/quote]

That makes no sense.

Chemistry and Physics are normally full-year Freshman, Sophomore courses in other states.  Biology is normally easier, unless they cover Organic Chemistry then?  And use earth/space for more difficult Physics reinforcement?

Or are they just trying to squeeze more kids through their programs?  That sounds like something MCPS would do, now that I think about it?[/quote]

This does not mean there are more kids in the programs.  It just allows these same kids to take more classes in the 4 years,[/quote]
