[quote=Anonymous]OP, in case you're curious you can find out more about the MCPS math track here http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/curriculum/math/ The advanced math track, second row in the chart, is an "accelerated" track that has kids taking Algebra in 7th as PP pointed out. There are tons of kids in this track. The MS and HS science & math magnet programs that are test-in also follow this track with Algebra in 7th, Geometry in 8th but their courses are taught at a much deeper level. So there's a lot of advanced math in MCPS. The thing that's different is that they don't let you "skip" to the next grade math. So even the best math students in the whole county in 5th usually have to wait to take Algebra in 7th.[/quote]
