[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child qualified, and I am really surprised by the number of kids we know that qualified but are opting out.

I would guess that a child who scored pass advanced on the 7th grade SOL and 91% or higher on the IAAT has mastered the math 7 material and is prepared for Algebra. [/quote]

FWIW,  Algebra 1 in 7th grade is sort of a basic requirement if one was interested in going to TJ.  [/quote]

Not really. A student can take Algebra 1 in 8th grade and take Geometry over the summer before 9th grade to "catch up" to the students that took Algebra I in 7th grade.  The math portion of the TJ admissions exam is not all that hard.[/quote]

Yeah but how is this "not really" ??  I swear some people here disagree just for the sake of disagreeing.

[b]The point is you need to have it to get into TJ.[/b]  And it'll probably will make it easier on the kid if they don't have to "catch up".  Sheesh![/quote]

No, you do not.[/quote]
