[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Consider the equity issues that math acceleration creates among high school graduates where one student graduates with Calc BC or Multivariable, and another student finishes just Algebra 2 by senior year. That's an equity gap of 3 to 4 years. If we raise the minimum math for HS graduation to something like a precalculus or calc AB, we would see a lot to high school drop outs. But the advanced math students can easily slow down and graduate with Algebra 2, and instead take other math courses like Statistics or Data Analysis or Math modelling, but stay away from calculus or even precalculus. [/quote] What if student is interested in both Calculus as well as Statistics courses? DC has been interested in Economics since middle school, and likes both. [/quote]
