I'm still nervous about AP Stats with DS next year, and those AOPS books are my "plan B" -- especially the counting/ probability book, since it would fit well with the subject. I'm on the verge of just buying it anyway.
Hi Erica, My DS9 is in the exact situation--almost. We are planning AoPS Counting and/or Number Theory this year, and DS is taking Stats (because the middle school cannot guarantee High School credit for other course so they decided to offer something the HS's don't offer). I have a little concern because I've always thought of Stats as dull. My backup is that if after the first month DS isn't thriving, we might have to switch to online course or something else.
delbows, it does intimidate me to forge ahead when they're so young (I think of how much info I forgot from age 8 or 9 versus 12 or 13). But, I have to believe that moving forward is the right thing, right?
