My DH took her to the placement exam which sounds as if it had lots of AoPs type questions. DH said more than half the kids left the exam within 15 minutes with explanations to their parents that the test was brutal. DD at least stuck it out and didn�t seem traumatized.
The AoPs class has really put it in perspective and given the school�s stated purpose of providing fast pace and problem solving depth in Advanced Alg 1, I believe the math dept made the right call!
I agree with you, Dottie. I guess this class name issue is why most schools rely on their own placement test for math, in particular!
KAR,
Why are you nervous about AP Stats for your DS?
