[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child took AP Physics 1 in 9th grade and AP Bio in junior year with no prereqs. Took honors chem in 10th and AP Calc in 11th. [/quote] Forgot to add that he thought Honors chemistry was a waste of time and should have taken AP chem. [/quote] I don't know why they make kids take regular chem before AP chem - it wasn't always this way. I think it's related to a sentiment in my school that is used to judge whether a child is "ready" for AP - they will not be accepted in the AP pre-screeners our school has set up if the teacher thinks the student will get a "B". That seems odd to me and likely to cut a lot of students out who could benefit from the challenge. [/quote]
