[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]MCPS forces everyone to take a math every year and it honestly sucks. [/b] My DD is taking Alg 2 in 9th and has no desire to keep leaning Calculus she will never use another minute in her life.  It would be different if she was going for science/engineering/computers/med, etc... but she isn't.  The math options suck and to force the kids to keep taking it instead of other more interesting courses stink.  [/quote]

It's not MCPS, it's a state requirement.

The same idiots that brought us the MCAP.  Take your Britishism final exams and stuff them.  Total hookup to testing industry yet again[/quote]

NP, what are you even talking about??? In Britain you can drop maths after the equivalent of 10th grade and never do it again, including as part of your degree, even at the most prestigious world class universities. (And what you do in 9th and 10th grade is far inferior to classes like algebra or geometry).

Also A levels haven’t relied solely on final exams in decades.[/quote]
