[quote=Anonymous]Math is one subject where if you rush it, things fall apart. If you’re coming in from public school, the math curriculum there tends to go fast and shallow. What kids are required to do in terms of problem-solving at private schools like NCS/STA is much more demanding. If your child has done Beast Math or is in AOPS, the math test questions can be at a high AOPS level of problem-solving and that’s on timed exams. If the school has told you they are not ready, trust them. They are not ready. Don’t set your child up for failure and frustration by not listening to the people who will be teaching and testing them in the future.[/quote]
