Looking for feedback on EPGY.
DS11 finished half of a geometry course last year at a small private school and ended up with the math award in June. Unfortunately, the school moved (way) out of town, and we had to enroll him in a new school. The new one put him in a slow-moving beginning geometry course and he's been unhappy.
On Friday, they finally decided to let him do independent study, and I'm thinking of EPGY. But EPGY seems to require intermediate algebra before geometry. I'm pretty sure that DS's school won't let him do this. They've given permission for second-semester geometry and that seems to be that. After he finishes geometry, they'd probably let him do the algebra course, but not before.
Does anyone know if EPGY will let him start partway through a course? I know that they'll give him a math aptitude test, and/or placement test, but don't know how fine-grained it is.
Advice and insights on EPGY welcome.
