[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid got into an Ivy (international relations) with highest math AP Calc AB. He was on the accelerated public middle school math track (all As/perfect sol score) but when he switched to private- the placement put him in honors geometry freshmen year. MS algebra sucked. The middle school fast track math classes were not comprehensive. The track to put your kid is the one he learns best in and will build the strongest foundation to build upon. More isn’t necessarily better in the long run. [/quote] +1 Agree. For various reasons our DC was placed on a not typical math pathway from being new to the district. It felt really risky not to push him into the accelerated track. Well, high school went by with less stressful math, and he was able to focus on other subjects and ECs. He was admitted early to HYP with AP Stats as his highest math. Humanities major. [/quote]
