[quote=Anonymous]Two thoughts. First, will this Alg. I class be identical in rigor to the she would take in 8th. If not, don't take it. Is it is the same, then look into what AP calc courses are offered at your HS. If possible, you want a good math student to at least get through BC level AP calc. Our oldest's school only went through AB level which led to some scheduling issues first year of college. Alg I is the most important math class your child will ever take -- the basis for all higher math. Be sure she is ready for challenging word problems and abstract thinking. Our youngest took it in 7th and did fine, but realize you are likely committing your child to AP calc in 11th grade and the work in 10th is really the same quick pace. A lot of math kids get the concepts easily- but the kids also need the maturity to grind out the problems/ homework - and that is not about intelligence and sometimes can pose challenges. [/quote]
