In our experience you need higher math to adequately complete challenging high school science. We adapted my DD's formal science goals for this year and next while she is focusing on math so she can move into more challenging Biology and Chemistry the following year. If the math isn't there and the executive function skills are poor I'm not sure a high school science class will help his love of science. He may do better homeschooling that subject and following his interests until his other skills are there, and by then he'll probably have most of what a class would contain down anyway. It's a really difficult balance.

(My DD likes the Magna books too.)
