[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look at science offerings at RPCS - bio in 9th then the more science focused girls are encouraged to take physics and Chem sophomore year. Which seems like it will lead to not so much depth bc so much content. By contrast, BMS starts with physics, then chem, then bio for jr year. Bc bio is traditionally the “easiest,” girls can also then double up with AP science jr year if they want. It’s just a better thought out program. [/quote] My DD is starting at BMS and I was confused about this sequence. Why put the easiest science course last? But now that you've explained it this makes sense because it will make it a bit easier to take other challenging courses in their junior year. [/quote] Because bio builds on chemistry which builds on physics. Most schools do it the other way around because the required math knowledge goes in the other direction.[/quote]
