[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sure? I think its a rare kid that needs that. I graduated from MCPS in the 90s and have an engineering degree. I took AP calculus in 12th grade. I got a 5 on the AP test and skipped out of 3 semesters of math in college. Not sure what getting to calculus in 11th grade would have helped. Of course everyone thinks their kid belongs in compacted math. The selection process looks pretty reasonable and fair to me. Pushing kids that don't belong in there ruins the whole intent.[/quote] +1 What's with the obsession over having a kid take Calculus in 11th grade or even earlier? To the other PP about the one-time assessment in 3rd grade setting your kid's math trajectory... I had a friend tell me their kid in MS was reassessed and got put in the higher math class. [/quote]
