[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I don’t see the harm in having to repeat them in college. It’s a big adjustment to college academics so if they have a couple of classes where they can easily do well…then great!![/quote] Careful in this. There are weed out classes that it doesn't matter if you are repeating or not. Check first before repeating. It's best to avoid weed-out classes which are Freshman/Sophomore level classes. Weed out is when a college accepts more kids for a program then they have slots for. There are a lot of MIT Engineers that graduated with a Business degree. [/quote] If you're struggling with Calc 1 and intro physics in college, that's actually a sign you should take these classes to fill knowledge gaps rather than avoid them. Weed out classes are notorious for catching underprepared or unserious students, not incapable ones. I'd rather my kid build a strong foundation in the basics before hitting upper level courses.
