[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are generally big fans.  We have three kids there.  And our kids are pretty different.  It caters to a wide range of abilities, and for some this is a negative.  [b]For example, there are students who graduate without ever taking any calculus.[/b]  I think at some privates this would be unheard of.  At the same time, you can also take very high level math like CALC BC or linear algebra.   It’s a wide range.  For us that is a positive but I know it makes the college list look rather unimpressive.   A handful of impressive schools, but a bigger handful of lower tier schools.   [/quote]

By this, do you include Pre-Calculus?[/quote]
DP. The lowest level math offered in upper school is Algebra I. I doubt they’d admit a new freshman who couldn’t at least place into that, and any students coming up through the MS will at least place into that — on track for precalc in 12th. Vast majority start in geometry (honors or on-level) in 9th, on track for Calculus of some flavor in 12th. [/quote]
