Poll: What math sequence were you in for school?

<p>7th: Pre-algebra(Gifted Program)
8th: Algebra 1(Gifted Program)
9th: Geometry Honors
10th: Algebra 2 Honors
11th: Pre-Calculus Honors, AP Statistics
12th: AP Calculus AB</p>

<p>9th: AA/FST (did all of AA half of FST)
10th: FST/PDM (completed FST and PDM)
11th: AP Calculus BC
11th Summer: some college course of stanford EPGY if it doesn’t cost too much
12th: Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra something along those lines depending on what I do over summer</p>

<p>Also, is EPGY worth it and do you get actual credit for MIT opencourseware?</p>

<p>8th Honors Geometry
9th Honors Alg ii
10th PreCalc
summer Calc 1
11th AP Stats (self study AP Calc AB)
12th Calc 2 + 3</p>

<p>My school does standard start HS math in 8th grade… but when I came out of public school I almost started Alg. I in 7th, but I wanted to be ‘like everyone else’. ■■■.</p>

<p>5th Grade (Priv.): At that time everyone took the same 5th grade math (6th grade public)
6th Grade (Pub.): Elementary School math that should have really been called Pre-Algebra.
7th Grade (Priv.): Pre-Algebra. Total waste of time.
8th Grade: Algebra I
9th Grade: Geometry
10th Grade: Alg. 2/Trig.
11th Grade: Pre-Cal.</p>

<p>In my grade, there’s only one person above where he’s supposed to be. (He’s an effing genius though.)</p>

<p>Oh… but I loved it when I was in public school and we had to ‘test’ into Accelarated math (Pre-Algebra, Algebra I/II, and Geometry in only three years). On the test, our teacher stopped us five minutes early by accident. You had to get 35/40 to be considered. I got 34 right, and I only answered 35.</p>

<p>Oh… and then I found out that if I got 35 right, I still wouldn’t have been allowed to take it, because I didn’t have 5th grade math state scores (because I was private 5th grade!) And then even if I had those… I still wouldn’t have gotten in because my math scores were Below Average (even though I had the highest GRADE in my math class).</p>

<p>So with that, I despise the public school system.</p>

<p>And I am on target. Not like it matters, they make us take math every year until we graduate anyways.</p>

<p>I hate math. But my track is the standard advanced track at our school:</p>

<p>8 Algebra I
9 Geometry H
10 Algebra II H
11 Pre-calc H
12 Calc AB</p>

<p>Most people in my pre-calc class aren’t taking calc, though. My school is pretty lazy.</p>

<p>7th - Pre Algebra
8th - Math 8
9th - Algebra 1 normal
10th - Algebra 2 normal
11th - Geometry normal</p>

<p>I win.</p>

<p>9th Algebra 1
10th Algebra 2
11th Geometry
12th Trigonometry im only 11th but I already now next years schedule</p>

<p>7th - Pre-Algebra
8th - Algebra I
9th - Geometry and Honors Algebra II/Trigonometry (took two math classes concurrently)
10th - Honors Pre-Calculus
11th - AP Calculus BC
12th - AP Statistics</p>

<p>bumpbumpbump</p>

<p>damn… I feel cheated by my school systems. And my parents.</p>

<p>9th: Remedial I
10th: Remedial II
11th: HONORS Remedial III
12th: Math teacher excitedly told me I got to skip that year of math!</p>

<p>I asked what remedial meant, and they didn’t give me a good answer, so I looked it up, and it says something about medicine. Am I going to be a doctor?! That would be aweeeesome! I’d cut people up and stuff. It’d be pretty sweet. My uncle Louie went to Harvard Medical School, and he’s kind of messed up in the head, so I should be able to get into a school ten times better with my special medicine math skills.</p>

<p>I thought I was advanced… and then I saw your stuff! Anyway, here’s mine - not slow by any means, but not as crazy as yours. </p>

<p>6th - Pre-Algebra
7th - Alg I Honors
8th - Alg II Honors
9th - Honors Geometry
10th - Honors Accelerated Pre-Calculus 1st semester/Honors Differential Calc 2nd semester
11th - AP Calculus BC
12th - AP Statistics or Honors Multivariable Calculus (I will most likely take the latter)</p>

<p>8: Algebra I
9: Geometry
10: Algebra II
11: Precal
12: Calc BC and Statistics</p>

<p>5 - … pre algebra? I don’t know what I took then but I took a placement test going from elementary->middle school and I ended up with Algebra 1 in 6th grade.
6 - Algebra 1
7 - Geometry
8 - Alg 2/Trig
9 - Precalc
10 - AP Calc AB
11 - AP Calc BC
12 - AP Stats</p>

<p>5th - Equivalent of Pre-Algebra
6th - In HI, More Pre-Alg, In TN - Something that was the same as Pre-Alg
7th - TN - Something that was the same as Alg 1 VA- Pre-alg(*<strong><em>ED AS HELL)
8th - Alg 1(</em></strong><em>ED AS HELL)
9th - Geometry(</em><strong><em>ED AS HELL)
10 - Alg 2/Trig(</em></strong>*ED AS HELL)
11 - AP Calculus BC(Slight comeback)
12th - Starting in the summer, MVC(Called vector calculus at NVCC, LA, and DE, Abstract Algebra, Topics in DE, Discrete Math, Finite Mathematics)</p>

<p>@speedsolver, why would one take AP Calc AB and BC? Doesn’t BC cover AB with additional stuff? Wouldn’t it be a lot of review? Would you take both exams?</p>

<p>This brings back memories…</p>

<p>5th grade: 5th grade math
6th grade: 8th grade math
7th grade: Algebra I
7th grade summer: Geometry
8th grade: Advanced Algebra
9th grade: Trigonometry/Analytic Geometry/Intro to Calculus
10th grade: AP Calculus BC
11th grade: Statistics (AP self study)
12th grade: Differential Equations/Linear Algebra</p>

<p>Well I’ve changed school systems which kind of screwed things up and my own school has since changed their own math sequence… so yeah. haha</p>

<p>6th Grade: Elementary School 6th grade math (Everyone took the same thing.)
7th Grade: Pre-Algebra (Everyone took the same thing.)
8th Grade: Algebra I (You either took Pre-Algebra 8 or Algebra I)
9th Grade: Geometry (You either took Geometry or Algebra I)
10th Grade: Algebra II/Trig (You either took Geometry, Algebra I, Algebra II, or Algebra II/Trig)
11th Grade: Pre-Calculus (You either took Pre-Cal, Geometry, Algebra II/Trig, or Algebra III I believe)
12th Grade: AP Statistics (Options: Algebra II/Trig, Algebra III, Pre-Calc, Calc, AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC, or AP Stats)</p>

<p>By the time I was a senior, my only options were AP Cal AB, AP Cal BC, Honors Cal, or AP Stats… so I felt kind of screwed and opted for AP Stats since I’m not too good at math.</p>

<p>The poor BC kids… They take AB the first semester and BC the second semester and we’re not on block schedule… so they only have 45 minutes a day of class.</p>

<p>Oh and my school only offered one non-honors math class and that was Algebra II, but I don’t think they even offer that now. =/</p>

<p>7th: Pre-algebra(Gifted Program)
8th: Algebra 1(Gifted Program)
9th: Geometry Honors
10th: Algebra 2 Honors
11th: Pre-Calculus Honors, AP Statistics
12th: AP Calculus AB</p>

<p>Wow, mine is exactly the same, except with AP Calc BC senior year and no AP Stat junior year. Thats the standard advanced/honors program at my school, although I have a friend who took Calc sophmore year, and another whose taking it this year.</p>

<p>I had to ***** to my Guidance Counselor to take AP Calc BC.</p>
