[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]hyper accelerated math doesnt move the needle much, now amc, usamo and aime do.[/quote] Those two things go hand in hand. The kid who going to represent his university at the Putnam competition was most likely both accelerated in math and did well on the AIME, etc. [/quote] It's a mix. Except for a few extreme math academies (California, Nevada, and a few others) and home schoolers who don't have class levels at all, the other math contest people just do whatever in school and learn advanced/enriched math after school (or on their laptops in school while ignoring class).[/quote]There are plenty of schools that don't deliberately hinder their students' educations by allowing them to work at their own pace, either with AoPS, EMF, or similar. That's how TJ has kids taking BC in 9th.[/quote] FCPS has middle schools where students do AoPS or EMF instead of the FCPS class? [/quote]
