If he has the time, I recommend that he take it over the summer. The workload is not bad. I heard it is tedious having the class drawn out over a semester.

My magnet kid was surprised at the workload.

It's an entire semester in 3 weeks. What did your "magnet" kid expect?

He'd taken two other summer classes before and the volume of assignments was surprising in comparison.

He doesn't sound like he gets that a condensed class in three weeks will be more work. Guess the magnet program didn't teach logic.

Shame you lack reading comprehension. He had already taken two summer classes, and Health A was considerably more work. As a magnet student, he was accustomed to a very heavy workload and was still surprised. If you can't comprehend why those two data points are relevant to OP's question, that says a lot about you.

This is OP - thanks for your input and I did get the point you were trying to make.

Based on the feedback here, I'm not ruling out the summer class but I'll suggest my kid wait a year to be more mature to power through the workload.



I think that's wise, OP. He'll need to be ready to devote several hours/day to it most days plus the actual classes themselves.



I'd even recommend he just take it during the regular school year. The hw spread out over four months vs. three weeks is not bad. I seem to remember someone telling me a lot of it us done in class, too.

Agree with PPs. For a class that's not at all hard, there is a lot of work. Unlike some of the other summer classes, this one doesn't seem to reduce the assignment load.

Why are you like this?


Why do you need to say your kid is in "magnet"? There are lots of smart kids in MCPS. Some smarter than yours. Most of us just don't comment about it.
