[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they take Calc BC in 11th grade in order for it to show up on the college application?  I don't think getting an A in senior year mattered? [/quote]
Maybe few do. But most take BC in 10th or 11th, since it's a co/prerequisite for many other advanced courses. Even the[b] basic Physics C[/b] has it as prerequisite.  [/quote]

What is [b]basic [/b]physics C? There is only two physics classes for TJHSST (in campus)

1. Physics 1 HN
2. AP Physics C M&EM (and this is not [b]basic [/b]in any sense when compared to other FCPS high schools)

The honors Physics 1 is Algebra based and does not require any Calculus. The AP physics C M&EM at TJHSST does require AP calculus BC as a co-requisite [/quote]

NP.  When I was in high school, I took Calc BC and Physics C M&EM my senior year.  It was cool how the classes went together - physics is basically just calculus. Or vice versa.

Taking these classes in 11th isn't unreasonable, since Algebra I is a 7th grade class (3 took it in 8th).   [/quote]
