[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Just came back to say that every time I posted I identified myself as OP. I am not a magnet parent and I am not puppeteering this thread .My son is far from being a genius and I am taking this issue very seriously.  He obviously has gaps somewhere. I am no chucking it up to test anxiety, I think it’s that there is not enough time on quizzes to get through the problems and he is rushing and making mistakes by getting confused between definitions. Not sure how the leap to test anxiety was made. Also, the poster who keeps calling me out for puppeteering is obviously not familiar with AoPS. Even when you don’t master the material you are still advanced to the next level. His Algebra 1 AOPS and MCPS was 100% virtual.   The poster is also not familiar with MCPS middle school math where you can retake quizzes so if he was struggling somewhere, I would not even know as his grades were good. Hon Algebra 2 was available at Frost last year, it was not on HS campus, so they were allowed retakes, late submissions etc. That’s why I previously stated that I think the gaps are from Algebra 2. Algebra 1 and Geometry at AoPS ran concurrently with MCPS. Algebra 2 material was different from MCPS. I don’t know how different but that’s what my son was saying. I do believe that the amount of work in Hon Precalculus is ridiculous.  To the poster who keeps accusing me of puppeteering….dude, this is a discussion about a math class, not supposed to be a controversial topic. Please chill. [/quote]

The MCPS material should have been a subset of aops algebra 2 material so if your child mastered Aops there should not really be gaps. [/quote]
