[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get into Blair or Poolsville SMACS program, and you'll have the option to take function (PreCalc + version) at 9th grade, and Calc BC or Calc BC + version (called "analysis") in sophomore year. [/quote] Yes. And kids that were accelerated prior all end up in same class. Glad we didn’t waste time busing my kid around prior. [/quote] Misleading. This (almost every case) only works if the student takes Algebra 2 in MS or [b]private program[/b]. Functions is the pathway for students who did Algebra 2 before high school. Most Blair SMACS students take the 3 semester "Precalculus A/B/C" sequence (4 semesters at Poolesvile) that contains accelerated Algebra 2 + Precalculus for student coming from Geometry. [/quote] Would Algebra 2 at AOPS count?[/quote] Yes. Anywhere you learn Algebra 2 counts. [/quote]
