[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless your kids are super smart and far advanced in math comparing to peers, summer Geometry Honor is not a good choice. I made the wrong decision not to stop my daughter taking it last summer and regretted my choice now. [/quote] My daughter moved to Fairfax county in 6th grade so had no chance to take Algebra I in 7th grade. She is talented in math but still summer geometry did not soak her well enough into a good understanding of geometry concepts and proofs. The consequence was quite obvious, she was not AIME qualified in 8th largely because she could not solve geometry problems fast enough. [/quote]lol, I promise you FCPS geometry would not have made a difference for AIME qualification. If she hadn't taken geometry the summer before 8th, wouldn't she need to take it in 9th (algebra 1 in 8th), when it wouldn't have mattered for AIME?[/quote]
