[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can your kid take just BC? Most kids don’t do AB then BC. [/quote] DP. Every school , public and private, in our area mandates AB then BC and has for over 20 years. The top dozen or so students at a subset of these schools takes multivariable in the high school taught by phD: stem public, 2 of 4 privates, and the engineering magnet. Math course tracking is evaluated in the context of the high school. AB then BC is not a negative because the curriculum is separate, not repeating. [/quote] That is very strange to us here in Fairfax County. It is definitely viewed as repetitive and "less than" for a student to take both Calc AB and BC. (Yes, yes, I know that someone out there has a kid in FCPS that took AB and BC and then got into MIT, but it is definitely not the norm.)[/quote]
