[quote=Anonymous]I think the trust the schools people are wrong. The placement tests are a very small sample size of material often learned two years ago. It is way less predictive of success in math classes than these people believe. We had a school that tried to keep our child out of Homors Algebra 2 in 9th based on the placement test when we’d always gotten As. We pushed strongly for it, he got As in that class, a 5 on the AP Calc BC, and the highest grade in the class in Linear Algebra. If we had listened to placement child would never have been on that track. [/quote]
