[quote=Anonymous]I understand what the OP is saying. My oldest is smart in math but I did not push him. He scored advanced on every elementary and middle school standardized test and got As in math. I assumed the school was placing him correctly. It wasn’t until the spring of 8th grade with HS course placement that I realized my mistake – since he did not take Algebra I in MS, it limited his options. Now – this did not hurt his college applications because he wasn’t applying to T20 schools. His major is Computer Science at a well-known state flagship. He is taking Calc 1 this semester. My youngest, we talked to the school to place him appropriately so he would complete Alg I in 8th grade. He’s in 10th now, in Alg II[/quote]
