[quote=Anonymous]My DD did this in 7th at Deal and Algebra 2 in 8th and then pre calc in 9th and Calc BC in 10th. A few things to know from our experience. She both loves math and is very good at it. If your child doesn’t love math, doubling up in 8th is not a good idea. They may get frustrated, miss PE and Arts which they may need for a mental break, and there are other opportunities to get ahead later like JHTY or some other program if they want to. If your child isn’t into math, that’s ok. APStats, AP Physics are both good options if they need something after Calc. Dual enrollment is great, but even at J-R you have to apply and not everyone gets in. Even if you do get in you are not guaranteed to be able to take MV Calc or linear algebra. It has to fit with your schedule so either an 8am class or after school, and the colleges don’t always have that schedule available. But all this is moot if your kid doesn’t enjoy math. To me that’s a non starter. [/quote]
