When TJ admissions only require Algebra 1 Hon and essay writing skills, why do they teach three years ahead up to trignometry and allow students to quit? or is it their way of filtering out the slow learners from accelerated math pace?  I assume student would've to had known algebra 1 by 7th grade end?.  How many actually complete the accelerated? is this much accelerated math specific to curie or typical of any prep center?

Because there are kids taking that level of math in 8th grade.  alg 2/trigonometry had about 100 students per year in Loudoun.  Probably much less next year.  While the parents are signing up for TJprep, it is technically not what Curie is selling.  The TJ prep is an addon for the math tutoring.[/quote]

If I understand correctly, Curie requires the student to have the Algebra2/trigonometry knowledge either they teach it there or taught by school, to survive in their TJ prep addon course? If student with a lower level math knowledge enrolls in Curie just to prep for TJ entrance essay, they end up quitting? [/quote]
