[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. I really appreciate everyone’s thoughtful replies. DCUM can be mean - I thought I might get flamed for pushing my kid too hard or told she was stupid because everyone takes Geometry or higher by freshman year. I’ll update the thread when I learn more or make a decision. First step is talking to the school, but I think a private college counselor may be helpful, too. [/quote] Lots of private schools require incoming freshman to take a test if they want to start in a math class above algebra 1 so not everyone takes starts at geometry or higher. Mine took algebra 1 in public MS (and got As) and then didn't pass the test to test out of it at a private HS. He wasn't the only one! [/quote] +1 My DS and many of his friends had to retake Algebra 1 in 9th based on the placement test. It is pretty common at Gonzaga. [/quote]
