[quote=Anonymous] Relax, OP. Math goes excruciatingly slowly in elementary school around here, it's no wonder they had to make different paths for different students at the end of elementary! I know a few people on DCUM have difficulty wrapping their non-mathematical minds around this, but some students either enjoy math and want to learn as fast as possible, or don't care one way or another but find math easy so they're fine with the faster-paced track. My son is in the second category. He finds his distractibility gets worse if the class goes too slowly, so Algebra it is in 7th grade. This isn't even the fastest track! We're scientists, did advanced math in our native countries, and find this completely normal. [/quote]
