[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So can someone sum up-- are there any downsides to taking Math 6/7/8 and waiting until HS for Algebra 1 for a kid who's not into STEM? Do high schools and colleges see it as non-rigorous and hold it against kids who score high and take the most advanced courses on the humanities side?[/quote] Your kid should be in the level where they c an actually learn the math. If you accelerate and your kid is not ready, they will struggle and do poorly, and that will reflect badly on college admissions—plus your kid actually won’t learn the material. [/quote]
