[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That is not LOWERING the standards. That is slowing down the acceleration BEYOND the standards. Your kid will be fine taking AP Calculus their senior year. [/quote] You don't have kids, obviously.[/quote] I have two, both gifted. One exceptionally in math. And personally I have two STEM degrees and work in STEM. My kids will be fine to have a slightly slower rat race. AP Calc in senior year is reasonable. [/quote] We're not convinced calc in senior year is going to be an option without, ironically, summer school/additional instruction. You know... rat race type things. I was the gifted kid, and I have one myself. It's also not all about 'when you get to calc'. It's ensuring that the kids who pick this up faster aren't so bored that they end up hating math (and their slower peers) forever.[/quote]
