[quote=Anonymous]I’m PP whose kids did Calc AB, then BC. DC did get an “A” in precalc with a former TJ math teacher. The teacher advised going into AB in general over BC. Interestingly HS wanted to push DC into BC though. BC is hard for less advanced students. It’s generally not a cake walk class. The 8th grade precalc students will be 9th graders then taking BC, why crush them their freshman year when they’re just getting familiar with the school and everything else in a transition. Going AB and then BC gives them a solid foundation for the later math classes. It also gives them a better chance of maintaining a high GPA, which seems to be all the colleges are interested in these days.[/quote]
