[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP hereby They attend an international school with integrated math but believed that all of algebra 1 would be covered. Turns out….Took half of algebra, half of geometry. Thinking best solution is to do algebra now, geo in summer. [/quote] This situation sounds very similar to my DC, but he is going to be taking Geometry 1. Geo is the standard for Freshman at his school, and there is no placement test needed IF you took Alegebra in 8th. That said, I don’t trust his ability to hit the ground running and plan to get tutoring over the summer. I can tell he needs it based on math grades (B+) and relatively lower standardized scores in Algebra subsections, and I think getting to Calculus by 12th is ideal. I will say he is naturally better at Geometry than Algebra, so I’m hoping it will eventually click with the extra tutoring.[/quote]
