Exact Path math is an individualized screening and remediation tool that has made it's way into TJ. Since TJ Admissions doesnt do math evaluation anymore, the TJ math department uses Exact Path to better determine an admitted student’s true math level. It may help Algebra 1 and few Geometry students, but for advanced students, who have already completed Algebra 2, it's time-consuming busywork.
Unless it identified areas that the students could use some practice in. Just because a student did well in the classes doesn’t mean that they don’t have gaps. I wouldn’t expect them to be huge but there could be important areas for improvement. This is especially true when those As could have come from retakes for just about every test. How well does the student retain the information and skills?

Anonymous wrote:My child is a ninth grader and we received an email asking him to complete the TJ exact math curriculum independent of classwork. It suggests that all TJ students must complete this work. Can parents of upperclassman give advice on how to tackle this? Was it helpful overall or more burdensome? Is it required of all students or can folks opt out?
