[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's getting crazy. Kids who by all reasonable metrics are not ready for APUSH in 9th grade are pushing to join because "that's what smart kids do". The lack of pre-AP standardized assessments in social studies is no doubt part of the problem. In math, kids know what they know and don't know relatively clearly. [/quote] +1. The middle school curriculum in English and social studies is not challenging and not preparing kids to take AP classes in 9th grade. I'd argue that the lack of a strong English curriculum is probably the biggest challenge for kids trying to take apush or ap gov since they are reading and writing heavy.[/quote]
