[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't get into compacted math, and you also don't get accelerated at any other point in your primary or secondary education, then you will keep going in on-grade-level math, take Algebra I in 8th grade, and graduate from high school having completed AP Calculus A/B. Does this constitute doom? I don't think so.[/quote] This is what parents really need to keep in mind. It's not a race and quite honestly, both of my kids were pushed ahead so fast that they missed so much foundation work. Believe me, it gets them in the more advanced classes in high school. Unless your child is a math genius, they will be just find doing Algebra in 8th grade and finishing up high school with A/B Calculus. My DS did exactly that and just got excepted to multiple highly selective colleges. [/quote]
