[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They really can’t get rid of taking calculus in highschool. Many colleges require ap calc for engineering majors— it would be putting Virginia highschool graduates at a distinct disadvantage for getting a stem degree. When I was in college, kids who didn’t take ap calc had to take a math class over the summer in college to catch up. [b]They need to work with Virginia colleges/universities— you can’t have public school graduates not prepared to attend state schools.[/quote][/b] +1 I'd love to hear what representatives from the VT College of Engineering think about this plan.[/quote] There was a question (that went unanswered) on one of the videos from the live chat - from a guy I am reasonably certain is, in fact, a VT COE professor. He was asking some of the same things we are - how are you going to handle the kids well above grade level?[/quote]
