[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS now has an option for Algebra 1 honors in 6th grade for a cohort of students. Better to take this “hardest” math path with possible lower grades, vs stronger grades but will be behind some peers? Which do colleges prefer? Realize this is ridiculous question since only in sixth grade, but have to make a choice.[/quote] It depends how many do it. In some schools there 2-3 kids each year others have almost 2 dozen on this path. It matters less if it is rare. Internationally this path is common, fwiw. Don't do it if they are not ready. Students who are ready are not risking lower grades by taking it early. They get A's anyway, or A+. That is the type of student this is designed for. The teachers will recommend it to some and not to others, best not to do it if not in the recommended group.[/quote]
