[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is going to depend on your district. Around the country, it's very common to apply to college without having taken Calculus or to have taken it senior year. However, that's because it's the norm in their districts. In the DMV, or at least in MCPS and FCPS, [b]the "norm" is that smart kids take Calculus junior year. [/b]I think it's ridiculous but it's the rat race. [/quote]\ This is 100% not "the norm" for "smart kids". Algebra in 8th, Geometry in 9th, Alg 2 in 10th, Precalc in 11th, Calculus in 12th is "the norm" here. [/quote] For FCPS, the prior poster was correct. Most advanced kids in FCPS take algebra in 7th, definitely not 8th.[/quote] Agree. Algebra in 8th has pretty much become on level. Pre-algebra in 8th grade would be considered remedial in FCPS. [/quote]
