[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, that's right. A couple of this year's Ivy League-bound seniors took AP Calculus AB in 8th grade and BC in 9th grade. They scored high. [/quote] [b]The regular trajectory at Basis is calculus in 9th grade, right? [/b] My 7th grader has algebra this year, I think pre-calc in 8th and then calc in 9th? Which still seems crazy early to me (back in the dinosaur late 80s I took calc in 12th grade - and that was the advanced track).[/quote] Wrong. The regular trajectory is Calculus AB in 10th grade. Very advanced students can do it in 9th, but it is rare to get that placement, and Basis is very upfront about that. They also have a slower track that will have you do Calculus AB in 11th grade.[/quote] My child is in 8th and we were told that the standard was precalc in 9th and 10th and Calc AB in 11th, but that advanced students could do all of precalc in 9th, Calc AB in 10th, and Calc BC in 11th.[/quote]
